This piece of code has been changed:

revno: 108593
committer: Michael Albinus <michael.albinus@gmx.de>
branch nick: trunk
timestamp: Wed 2012-06-13 13:56:53 +0200
message:
  * net/dbus.el (dbus-call-method): Use timeout for `read-event'.
  Otherwise, it blocks in batch mode.

That means, it should be solved in Emacs 24.3.
