The people most acquainted with dbus claim that despite the locking it
is not thread-safe either [ much like LibreOffice I guess ;-].
Unfortunately, I suspect it's not terribly easy to protect it with our
own mutexes either - IIRC gio (used in the file-selector) and dconf for
configuration (as/when/if) have some degree of dbus usage too.

Quite likely. AFAICS we should prolly do this really early in the VCL
backend initialization if #ifdef ENABLE_DBUS is true (or any of these
other conditionals) ? the earlier the safer I suspect.
