I have some FFI-based client-side bindings in my library at
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/ossaulib.git/.  The (glib dbus) module
exports procedures for
 - making a synchronous or asynchronous dbus call
 - registering a Scheme procedure to be called when a dbus signal
   occurs.

(ofono modem) is a library module that uses those dbus- procedures, and
I hope is simple enough to make the usage clear.

What was that?

I know that guile-gnome used to have a dbus module, and possibly still
does.

Not that I know of.  Should be quite easy to build on top of my
client-side bindings, though.  (Or on top of any set of client-side
bindings.)
