Usually software hosted on Freedesktop.org does not leak dependencies of that kind. E.g. service based infrastructure either uses a protocol on a socket or D-Bus interfaces, neither dragging library dependencies from service implementations into clients.
Libraries are usually very low level, using only standard C or C++ features.

D-Bus, as a second generation of the ideas, principles and requirements proven by DCOP, might be used by application developers in ways it was not intended to be used, but it is more often used in ways it was specifically designed for.
Ubus seems to come close than ZeroMQ, so one would have to evaluate it on a case-by-case basis to determine where it currently falls short.
