Your commit message uses the word leak in singular form but there are
multiple fixes in this patch, i.e. the commit message is misleading.
In this case I'd split the patch into four separate ones:

telephony-maemo5: Fix D-Bus reply memory leaks
cups: Fix D-Bus reply memory leaks
agent: Fix D-Bus reply memory leaks
mpris-player: Fix D-Bus reply memory leaks

Yes, you are correct. You can split it into multiple patches.
Thanks in advance.

Syam
Probably off topic to this patch discussion, but whats chances, while you 
folks are kicking dbus's tires, of fixing the thing so that if the target 
doesn't exist, the message sent gets thrown under the buss instead of 
blocking, which then requires a kill of both processes, and a proper 
sequentially done restart (target started first) to make it work?

Cheers, Gene
