 * and the associated free() calls. It does introduce another global
 * lock which could be a performance issue in certain cases.

 * .000077 to .000069 with the message cache on my laptop. The sysprof

 * Appends fields to a message given a variable argument list. The

 * followed by the value to append. Appendable types are basic types,
 * and arrays of fixed-length basic types. To append variable-length
 * basic types, or any more complex value, you have to use an iterator
 * rather than this function.
 *
 * To append a basic type, specify its type code followed by the
 * value. For example:
 *
 * @code
 * DBUS_TYPE_INT32, 42,
 * DBUS_TYPE_STRING, "Hello World"
 * @endcode
 * or
 * @code
 * dbus_int32_t val = 42;
 * DBUS_TYPE_INT32, val
 * @endcode
 *
 * Be sure that your provided value is the right size. For example, this
 * won't work:
 * @code
 * DBUS_TYPE_INT64, 42
 * @endcode
 * Because the "42" will be a 32-bit integer. You need to cast to
 * 64-bit.
 *
 * To append an array of fixed-length basic types, pass in the
 * DBUS_TYPE_ARRAY typecode, the element typecode, the address of
 * the array pointer, and a 32-bit integer giving the number of
 * elements in the array. So for example:
 * @code
 * const dbus_int32_t array[] = { 1, 2, 3 };
 * const dbus_int32_t *v_ARRAY = array;
 * DBUS_TYPE_ARRAY, DBUS_TYPE_INT32, &v_ARRAY, 3
 * @endcode
 *
 * @warning in C, given "int array[]", "&array == array" (the
 * comp.lang.c FAQ says otherwise, but gcc and the FAQ don't agree).
 * So if you're using an array instead of a pointer you have to create
 * a pointer variable, assign the array to it, then take the address
 * of the pointer variable. For strings it works to write
 * const char *array = "Hello" and then use &array though.
 *
 * The last argument to this function must be #DBUS_TYPE_INVALID,
 * marking the end of the argument list.
 *
 * @todo support DBUS_TYPE_STRUCT and DBUS_TYPE_VARIANT and complex arrays
 *
 * @todo If this fails due to lack of memory, the message is hosed and
 * you have to start over building the whole message.
 *
 * @param message the message
 * @param first_arg_type type of the first argument
 * @param ... value of first argument, list of additional type-value pairs
 * @returns #TRUE on success
