Strange error compiling rox-session

Question

Using thegnu's PKGBUILD, updated to download the latest version of rox-session:
gcc -march=i686 -O2 -pipe -Wl,-O1 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -I/usr/X11R6/include `pkg-config --cflags gtk+-2.0 libxml-2.0 dbus-1 dbus-glib-1` -I. -c -o dbus.o dbus.c
dbus.c: In function `connect_to_bus':
dbus.c:298: warning: implicit declaration of function `dbus_bus_service_exists'
dbus.c:311: warning: implicit declaration of function `dbus_bus_acquire_service'
dbus.c:325: error: `DBUS_PATH_ORG_FREEDESKTOP_LOCAL' undeclared (first use in this function)
dbus.c:325: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
dbus.c:325: error: for each function it appears in.)
dbus.c:326: error: `DBUS_INTERFACE_ORG_FREEDESKTOP_LOCAL' undeclared (first use in this function)
make: *** [dbus.o] Error 1
Compile failed
Press Return...
(Bizarrely, ABS will create a package even if the compile fails, and install it if the -i option is used. :? )

Nope, checked, and used the -s option.
