Definitely today is not my day! I solved the "not hildonized" issue, I
missed a CFLAGS="-DMAEMO2" in debian/rules!

However, when launching the application from the menu in Scratchbox this is
what I see on the terminal:

hn-wm.c:264,hn_wm_top_service()  Called with 'it.opbyte.grsync'
hn-wm.c:302,hn_wm_top_service() ### Failed to read memory limits, using
scratchbox ??
hn-wm.c:335,hn_wm_top_service() unable to find service name '
it.opbyte.grsync' in running wins
hn-wm.c:336,hn_wm_top_service() Thus launcing via osso_manager_launch()
hn-wm.c:1210,hn_wm_dbus_method_call_handler() Checking if service: '
it.opbyte.grsync' is watchable

and the application is usable for some seconds (< 1 min.) then it suddenly
dies without any error (it doesn't segfaoult, though).
I remember something similar used to happen with IT2005 too, and it was
related to DBUS not being able to properly register the service.
This is what I do in main.c:

  gtk_init (&argc, &argv);

  [...]

  program = HILDON_PROGRAM(hildon_program_get_instance());
  osso_context = osso_initialize(PACKAGE, VERSION, FALSE, NULL);
  g_assert(osso_context);
  main_window = HILDON_WINDOW(create_main ());
  hildon_program_add_window(program, main_window);
  g_set_application_name(_("Grsync"));
  gtk_widget_show_all (GTK_WIDGET(main_window));
  g_signal_connect(G_OBJECT(main_window), "delete_event",
                   G_CALLBACK(gtk_main_quit), NULL);
  gtk_main();

Any clue?
