/**
   Initializes gaim dbus pointer registration engine.

   Remote dbus applications need a way of addressing objects exposed
   by gaim to the outside world.  In gaim itself, these objects (such
   as GaimBuddy and company) are identified by pointers.  The gaim
   dbus pointer registration engine converts pointers to handles and
   back.

   In order for an object to participate in the scheme, it must
   register itself and its type with the engine.  This registration
   allocates an integer id which can be resolved to the pointer and
   back.

   Handles are not persistent.  They are reissued every time gaim is
   started.  This is not good; external applications that use gaim
   should work even whether gaim was restarted in the middle of the
   interaction.

   Pointer registration is only a temporary solution.  When GaimBuddy
   and similar structures have been converted into gobjects, this
   registration will be done automatically by objects themselves.

   By the way, this kind of object-handle translation should be so
   common that there must be a library (maybe even glib) that
   implements it.  I feel a bit like reinventing the wheel here.
