Comment(by mta@…):

 Is the log snippet you quote from a case where dbus launched gconfd-2 or
 was it already running?  I presume it was already running.

 If dbus launches it, then gconfd-2 gets the service address from the
 environment variable DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS.  This is set in
 add_bus_environment which is called from bus_activation_activate_service
 before it launches gconfd-2.  The value for DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS is
 taken from activation->server_address from the activation struct passed to
 bus_activation_activate_service.  This is a "launchd:..." type address.
 The real question is should it be this type of address or should it be a
 "unix:..." style address.  I.e., is the bug in the creation of the
 activation struct or is it that there needs to be a handler added to
 open_funcs in dbus-transport.c for the "launchd:..." address that's in it.
