Nope, but there is always the workaround patch I provided in comment #12 that defers the deletion of all static objects that register themselves with QDBusConnection.

It fixes the problem, but it does not really address the question why QDBusConnection attempts to access an already deleted object. Perhaps this is the result of the fact that all these objects that cause such crashes are static objects ? Anyways, unregistering the object from the QDBusConnection before deletion does not help either ; so the issue remains an upstream issue until someone can show otherwise.
