Using $(LN_S) is inappropriate because it could in theory mean either
ln -s, ln or cp -p depending on autoconf checks.
Not using -f breaks reinstallation directly from source (DESTDIR unset),
because the symlinks will already exist.
Because systemd isn't currently portable to non-Linux, let alone
non-SUS-compliant systems, it seems safe to assume that ln -fs behaves
as specified by SUS if systemd was found.

Packagers should only enable this flag if they have confirmed that it
actually works on their toolchain (it's the sort of rarely used feature
that frequently regresses on obscure architectures/OSs without anyone
noticing), and also confirmed that it is actually a significant size win
for their configuration.

On Linux, we previously called openlog() (with different options!) while
initializing SELinux; leave SELinux messages as LOG_USER|LOG_INFO in case
anyone was relying on that, but let the rest of our log messages come
out as LOG_DAEMON.
Also enable LOG_PERROR (copy syslog messages to stderr) unconditionally;
we can make this an autoconf check if anyone's pet Unix doesn't have
LOG_PERROR.

In practice, nothing copes with missing broadcast signals, so the least
we can do is make the failure mode visible.

It's a minor security benefit, but not automatically beneficial (it
enables ASLR, but breaks prelinking, some buggy toolchains, and some gdb
versions). Distributions who know their infrastructure works well can
enable it just as easily via
./configure CFLAGS="-fPIE" LDFLAGS="-pie"
without extra support from us, and that's a generic solution applicable to
many packages.
Similarly, don't force libdbus and libdbus-internal to be PIC: libtool
knows better than we do whether that's necessary/beneficial on a
particular platform.

Also remove some pointless indirection (extra_tests etc.), don't install
the unused directory $(libexecdir)/dbus-1 (we actually install the
launch helper directly into $(libexecdir)), and allow dbus_daemondir to be
set on Windows rather than forcing dbus-daemon to be installed to
$(bindir) there.
dbus_daemon_execdir has to contain "exec" so that the dbus-daemon will be
installed by "make install-exec" and not "make install-data".

In commit:
075945f6 (John (J5) Palmieri 2005-07-14 20:44:15 +0000
some code was added to compare services by Exec key. The changelog is
not pariticularly informative as to why this was added. But while
debugging other code, we noticed this.
Comparing by Exec key is not in the specification, and triggered a
problem where while converting services to use systemd for activation,
a change was made to use Exec=/bin/false and simply rely on systemd
to activate.
While I think it was broken for the service files to be changed
to Exec=/bin/false, we shouldn't be doing something here that's
not in the spec either.

The default configuration has hardcoded 2048 complete connections,
and 64 incomplete. We need at least that number of file descriptors,
plus some for internal use.
In the bus, attempt to call setrlimit() before we drop privileges.
Practically speaking for this means the system bus gets it, the
session bus doesn't.

This is more graceful than failing entirely (our previous behaviour),
but more visible than ignoring it completely (the previous behaviour
patched in by Debian and derivatives).
Based on a patch from Daniel Silverstone back in 2004, which was meant
to be temporary; I think it makes sense to change this permanently,
since files in *.d are typically supplied by other packages, whose bugs
shouldn't be able to bring down dbus-daemon.

This patch enables support for Mac OS X's launch daemon
for startup as well as sharing of the DBus session bus
environment. It includes a LaunchAgent plist for automatic
start of the session bus.
This will make integrating the building of HTML versions of these
manpages into the build system way easier, at the cost of keeping
manpages in a different directory to the source for the program they
describe. I think this is an acceptable trade-off.
