* REGRESSION FIX: some applications launched with the activation helper
  may need DBUS_STARTER_ADDRESS. (LP: #1058343)
  - debian/patches/CVE-2012-3524-regression-fix.patch: hardcode the
    starter address to the default system bus address.
* REGRESSION FIX: unclean shutdown after dbus upgrade (LP: #740390)
  - debian/libdbus-1-3.postinst: trigger an upstart re-exec before

* Merge with Debian unstable. Remaining Ubuntu changes:
  - Install into / rather than /usr.
  - debian/dbus.postinst: Use upstart call instead of invoking the init.d
    script for checking if we are already running.
  - Add debian/dbus.upstart.

    the system bus to 5000 (LP #454093)
  - 81-session.conf-timeout.patch: Raise the service startup timeout from 25
