Comment(by ryanjohns at gmail.com):

 This may still be related to dbus.  I activated dbus 1.2.4_2 and reverted
 the gnucash launch script back to the vanilla version. If I run 'gnucash'
 from the command line I get the error dialog from gnucash about not being
 able to find default values.  If I try 'dbus-launch gnucash' *or* 'dbus-
 launch --sh-syntax' I get the following error...

 Failed to start message bus: In D-Bus address, character '+' should have
 been escaped
 EOF in dbus-launch reading address from bus daemon

 ... which leads me to believe that there is in fact something wrong with
 dbus since I get the same error with no mention of gnucash.  My DISPLAY
 env variable is '/tmp/launch-0ukbnG/:0'.  Thanks for your continued help.
