in windbus svn there is now a patch which allows relative pathes in 
config files and command line parameters called working directory.
The working directory is one level above the dbus-daemon executable. Now 
the command lines

dbus-daemon --session

  or

dbus-daemon --config-file=etc/session.conf

are working.

Also config files entries inthe form

  <servicedir>data/dbus-1/services</servicedir>

are possible.
