Yes, there is already a bug about it, this is #518069. No need to
reassign this one. The problem is that GConf is used before the manual
launch of dbus-daemon. So D-Bus is autostarted, and later it is started
manually again.

But even knowing that, I think it would be safer to always launch the
session D-Bus daemon when the selected session is gnome-session. I do
not like to rely on any kind of auto-starting daemons. It used to break
badly with gnome-settings-daemon, and starting it manually fixed lots of
issues.
