[gaim-migrate @ 16759] This initializes threads for glib and dbus, because under some circumstances multithreaded libraries are causing dbus badness (namely, gnome-vfs). This fix doesn't really belong in Gaim, but in the interest of expedience (we don't want to wait for upstream libraries to get their initializations all worked around to make things safe) the fix goes here. Note that all Gaim frontends will have to initialize glib threads if other threaded libraries which interact with glib or dbus or what-have-you come into play. committer: Tailor Script <[e-mail]>

This program calls gaim API functions using DBus.  As opposed to gaim-send, 
it does not print the return value.

Usage:

   $0 method-name type1:parameter1 type2:parameter2 ...

This shell script just invokes dbus-send, see man dbus-send for how 
to specify the parameters.  

Examples:

   $0 GaimCoreQuit

Use dbus-viewer to get the list of supported functions and their parameters.
