          DKPort is used by the Distributed Objects system to
          communicate with D-Bus. Unless you have special
          needs, don't create DKPort instances yourself, but use
          the interfaces provided by NSConnection instead. The
          default <ref type="method" id="+port">+port</ref>
          message will return a port connected to the session
          bus.

            This method should be called by an application that
            wants to make use of the multithreaded features of
            DBusKit. After this method has been called, it is
            no longer safe to call into DBusKit from
            <ref type="method" id="+initialize">
              +initialize
            </ref>
            methods, which might result in deadlock from the
            Objective-C runtime.
