That's also a conffile, so it's not easier to do. As discussed with
Oli on IRC, I uploaded

  https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dbus/1.6.18-0ubuntu8

now which at least avoids starting yet another bus.

However, please note that this merely makes debugging easier, it's not
a proper fix by itself.

We need to decide which entity (lightdm, upstart session job,
Xsession.d/) is responsible for starting the session bus on the phone,
and then quiesce the other ones.

And then find out where passing of environment variables fails, or the
bus gets started too late. That seems to be the real bug: If as you
say gdbus tries to call dbus-launch that means that the calling
process does not have a $DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS. But *every* user
session process needs to have that.
