It would be very peculiar if D-Bus was removed from your runlevels; it's more
probable that a service implicitly starting D-Bus as a dependency via `need` was
changed during your system upgrade. Regardless, since the service was never
starting, the socket file was never being created. X should probably try and
start the D-Bus service when it initialises, either as a part of the Gentoo
patchset, or as a bug to upstream. The BlueZ bluetooth service does this, for
example [1]:
depend() {
after coldplug
need dbus localmount hostname
}
Anyway, glad to see it fixed.
