death/dbus — Issue #3: can't connect to system bus

Debian squeeze, dbus 1.2.24-4

Python and scheme bindings via libdbus are working

Example:

(dbus:with-open-bus (bus (dbus:system-server-addresses))
(dbus:with-introspected-object (wicd-wireless bus "/org/wicd/daemon/wireless" "org.wicd.daemon")))

Error: No more mechanisms to try.

Seems to be related to cookie sha1 auth

Working example in scheme:

(define wicd-wireless-context (dbus:make-context
bus: dbus:system-bus
service: 'org.wicd.daemon
interface: 'org.wicd.daemon.wireless
path: '/org/wicd/daemon/wireless))
(dbus:call wicd-wireless-context "GetWirelessProperty" 0 "bssid")
("88:43:E1:13:FC:B2")

I don't yet know enough to attempt a fix unfortunately.
