Details

dbus now writes its pid to /var/run/dbus/pid. If the system shuts down unexpectedly e.g. power failure, on reboot, the "Removing Leftover Files" section in rc.sysinit, does not remove this pid. The closest it comes is

/bin/rm -f /var/run/*.pid &>/dev/null

This causes dbus to fail. The pid must be removed manually, and dbus started again.
This task depends upon

Additional comments about closing:  Latest version of dbus removes the pidfile on startup if the pid belonging to it isn't running.
