Hm... What version of dbus-glib do you have installed?  Unfortunately,
odds are you need a newer one.

This one is probably because you're compiling with a *newer* Boost than
was used when 0.17 was designed for.  There have been some changes to
the Boost headers such that stuff that used to be included incidentally
no longer is.  Try adding

        #include <boost/function.hpp>

to main.cpp.
