Eoghan,
Interesting. I thought there was a default for dbus_enable in
/etc/defaults/rc.conf. Try putting in dbus_enable=yes in /etc/rc.conf;
it's useful for automatically detecting hardware in gnome and
interprocess communication in many different programs. Not sure what you
want to do about polkitd_enable though.. It looks like you might need to
enable that for dbus (based on this mailing-list thread and the
references to dbus in the C source code):
