Oh. Yes, I have the same problem.

It looks like what's happening is that gnome-session is attempting to
start dbus via dbus-launch. This isn't needed because launchd will take
care of starting dbus and letting applications find it.

I'm afraid I don't have any experience with gnome-session so I don't
know if there's a way to get it to not try to start dbus.

(Why are we installing dbus-launch anyway? My understanding is that
with our launchd-enabled dbus, it shouldn't be used and apparently
doesn't work. But I am no dbus expert, so perhaps I'm missing
something.)
