[OE-core] [PATCH] dbus-test_1.12.2: various fixes

[Burton, Ross]

So the problem is that dbus-test has a libdbus-1.so.3 and if it is built
after dbus then it wins the race for "who provides libdbus.so".  Obviously
this isn't right, I'm testing a fix now using PRIVATE_LIBS and want to file
a bug to fix this behviour in 2.6.
