I see the exact same thing as you show above, but did nothing to start it twice, so assume XFCE4 is doing that for me. There is language in /etc/xdg/xfce4/xinitrc to check for a properly operating dbus and launch one if needed. -- Those who do not understand Unix are condemned to reinvent it, poorly.
