I'm attempting to build NDesk D-Bus on 10.4/ppc and I get the following error:

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
hard to document the total steps to reproduce, since it involves some mono
packages I'm attempting to put together in Fink for OSX
Actual Results:  
the CRITICAL assert above

Expected Results:  
continued compilation


It appears that the .wapi shared data directories end up with a space in them,
because it uses the machine name as part of the filename.

The code to parse the names does this:

        ret = uname (&ubuf);
        if (ret == -1) {
                ubuf.machine[0] = '\0';
                ubuf.sysname[0] = '\0';
        } else {
                g_strdelimit (ubuf.sysname, "/", '_');
                g_strdelimit (ubuf.machine, "/", '_');
        }

It appears that going by the documentation of g_strdelimit:
http://www.idiap.ch/~formaz/doc/glibdocs/glib-string-utility-functions.html#G-STRDELIMIT

..if we pass NULL for the second argument, it will escape a series of common
characters that could cause issues.

I'm doing this testing on my only PPC box, an 800MHz G4, so I'm in the process
of re-building mono to test, I'll let you know if this works.  ;)
