working dbus tabbing patch against debian sid amd64 v1.3.1-1

Hi, thanks for this great app

I've been using meld since long with regularly adapted and fine working patch initially from Kacper Wysocki and found at http://mail.gnome.org/archives/meld-list/2007-July/msg00015.html

As on my debian amd64, meld bumped to version 1.3.1-1 so I merged again the patch.
As it is still working fine, I am attaching it

For me working with tabbed meld in conjunction with a nautilus extension preventing from having too many meld instances open is a more important feature than being able to launch several meld instances

I am ready to provide any other info/help, or available for any testing needs

cheers and thanks again
