I spent some time this evening trying to reproduce the same effect using 
my laptop's X display (it has Ubuntu lucid).  I tried various things to 
see if it could be "hurried along":
    - sleeping the laptop for a minute or two
    - sleeping the laptop for hours (so that the SSH session expired)
    - deliberately killing the dbus-{launcher,daemon} on the SSH target
    - just some ordinary use l-)

Nothing reproduced the problem.  So it does seem possible that there is 
some property of Apple's X server which is tripping up dbus-launch in 
squeeze (I did not have these issues under lenny, though that *could* 
just mean that the programs I used depended on its less in the earlier 
versions).
