Public bug reported:
When running steam /var/log/syslog gets flooded with error messages.
Growing it insanely fast to gigantic sizes > 100 MB in a matter of
hours.
The lines in question:
Oct 22 19:07:56 NEXUS-ONE steam.desktop[9806]: This is normally a bug in some
application using the D-Bus library.
Oct 22 19:07:56 NEXUS-ONE steam.desktop[9806]: process 9990: arguments to
dbus_connection_unref() were incorrect, assertion "connection->generation ==
_dbus_current_generation" failed in file ../../../dbus/dbus-connection.c line
2824.

application using the D-Bus library.
This happens very fast, just did a measuerment on it and it was about
213K per 2 minutes wich syslog grew.
Shutting down Steam stops it completely. Bu thats not a real option
since we like to play our games, don't we? :)
