crash in dbus

I am cross posting this to dbus and connman.  I have an issue where I am trying to make a call to connman using dbus and I get a crash in dbus. 

I have a class that makes various connman calls, and also is set up to receive messages asynchronously.  So, In my class, I run a new thread that it's only purpose is to create a g_main_loop, then run it, the main part of the class is called when the user wants to initiate various events (for example a wireless scan), and to respond to connman messages on dbus (scan complete).
I have a problem though that when I issue any connman calls after I've initiated g_main_loop_run I get a crash.  If I issue any calls (for example GetProperties, Scan...), before I initiate the main loop, it functions just fine.   I don't have much of a stack trace to go on, but this is all I've got at this point:

The entire function for NetworkLoop is as follows (again it's started in its own thread):

int NetworkOjbect::NetworkLoop(size_t)
{
    GMainLoop *pMainNetworkLoop;
    pMainNetworkLoop = g_main_loop_new(NULL, 0);
    if (!pMainNetworkLoop)
    {
        Trace("Could not start main network loop\n");
        exit(-1);
    }
    g_main_loop_run(pMainNetworkLoop);
    return(0);
}


Is there something with my logic in running the main loop in its own thread?  Is there a better way to debug this?  

Thanks for your input.
