Bug#481030: This seems to intersect with changes made to 'gnome-control-center' and maybe 'dbus' on 7/28

DBUS got restarted during that day's upgrade and of course everything 
didn't go as smoothly as hoped.  Could there be some invalid saved 
settings somewhere from that restart?

FWIW, after the failure messages it seems that the settings daemon does 
indeed start:
