New dbus port breaks hald

This weekend I upgraded dbus from 1.2.24_2 to 1.4.0. The upgrade
reported no problems and dbus appears to start up just fine, but hald
does not. It exits during initialization with:
11:52:44.493 [I] hald_runner.c:110: runner_server_message_handler: destination=(null) obj_path=/org/freedesktop/DBus/Local interface=org.freedesktop.DBus.Local method=Disconnected
11:52:44.493 [I] hald_runner.c:151: runner process disconnected
*** [DIE] hald_runner.c:runner_died():204 : Runner died

I have had this happen on at least 10 attempts to start hald, but on ONE
occasion, hald started normally, so I suspect a race.

I have submitted a PR, ports/151725, which has more detail and I have
rolled back to 1.2.24_2. 

Any other information I can supply to help track this down?
