You've put the lines inside #ifdef USE_GTK. However, glib could be
linked to Emacs without using gtk. We might need another check, like
#ifdef USE_GLIB. This would be useful in other places, too.

Furthermore, I'd wrap these lines with #ifdef HAVE_DBUS. If Emacs is
compiled without D-Bus support, external processes could still use
D-Bus via autolaunch. You suppress this possibility by overwriting
$DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS.

Best regards, Michael.
