I do not speak about using FFI in GNU Emacs. D-Bus in GNU Emacs consists of dbusbind.c, dbus.el, and dbus.texi [1]. I was thinking of writing a dbusbind.el for [S]XEmacs, reimplementing its Lisp exported objects via ffi-dbus.el. dbus.el and dbus.texi could be left untouched in the best case (in practice, it might be necessary to change them as well, for example due to concurrent definitions in dbus.el and ffi-dbus.el).
