I found this bug as well when I first tried to add a VPN, but I (or a
friend of mine really) found a way around it without having to do a full
restart. I just went to the terminal and typed

sudo  /etc/init.d/dbus restart

and then restarted the network manager with

nm-applet

the only problem is that the network manager only stays open while the
terminal that you started it with is running, but i suppose this isn't
much of a problem if you only need a stop gap measure until your next
restart.
