I think those are mandatory when running X + { KDE | Gnome }.
Maybe it's even required for running KDE or Gnome applications
without the whole desktop environment? Maybe the dependencies
are that deep that they affect the libraries used...

Always check for

	hald_enable="YES"
	dbus_enable="YES"

in your /etc/rc.conf.
