GDBus, the D-Bus implementation in GLib (which implements the same IPC
protocol as dbus-glib but is not the same code), raises SIGTERM when
a process gets disconnected from the bus.
dbus-glib would _exit(1) under the same circumstances, which is not what
is happening here, so I'm fairly sure this is nothing to do with dbus-glib.
However, the SIGTERM is also working as documented, and is not a bug.
The most common reasons to get disconnected from the bus are:
* End of desktop session (not happening in your case)
* Disconnected by the dbus-daemon after sending an invalid message
My first guess would be that hexchat, or some library or plugin that it
has loaded, is sending a D-Bus message containing strings that are not
UTF-8. This is considered to be a bug in whatever component is sending
that message.
