Hi Aaron, no, this is not yet forgotten, we're just stuck...

I don't believe this is the problem, here. It's the same situation on the
build mac, either way.
Another bit from the man page is this:
-w Overrides the Disabled key and sets it to false. In previous
versions, this option would modify the configuration file. Now
the state of the Disabled key is stored elsewhere on-disk.
Now, thank you, Apple for being so specific, on just where that would be
stored. But either way, I guess that could be a historical explanation for the
note on file ownership, too.
Either way, perhaps our new angle at this problem should be:
Step 1: Find out, how we can _stop_ whatever thing is going wild trying to
launch dbus.
Step 2: Find out, if that actually has any negative side-effects.
Step 3: Find out, where it came from.
So for step 1., could you try:
sudo launchctl unload -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.freedesktop.dbus-
system.plist
launchctl unload -w /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist
(sudo) killall dbus-daemon
ps a | grep "dbus" # and kill anything still around.
launchctl -l # look for any signs of dbus launchers left
After that,
- check the logs
- try starting RKWard.
(And well, you may want to try on a machine that is not mission critical,
first).
