Thanks for the confirmation :)
I've installed 'dbus-1-dbg', but experienced no more Dolphin crashes yet.

Thanks for the explanation - I think I'm beginning to get the hang of it now, 
though would very much like to understand how some function names can remain 
unresolvable while others in the same package (libglib in this instance) are 
not. Maybe they're private functions of some sort, or maybe the compiler can 
be told that some names are of no interest.  I guess I'll understand better by 
writing a KDE program or two

Cheers,
Nick
