This message still occurs every time ConsoleKit starts.  Why has the
bug report been tagged "upstream wontfix"?

The workaround of adding "--no-daemon" to the invocation in
/usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit.service
makes the WARNING go away, but only until the file is overwritten on
the next upgrade.  It may also have side-effects, but since there's
no man page, who can say?

I suspect this bug has been confused with the "pstree -a repeats
threads" non-bug that jiddanni tacked onto it in followups.  I can
see that one in the bugs.freedesktop.org BTS; but nothing about
WARNING messages sent to syslog.
