I did some brief look, and discovered a workaround, or maybe even a fix:
The message you see comes from gnome-terminal, but it can work fine
without gconf, or maybe check for it is broken:
in terminal.c:
/* If the gconf daemon isn't available (e.g. because there's no dbus
* session bus running), we'd crash later on. Tell the user about it
* now, and exit. See bug #561663.
*/
if (!gconf_ping_daemon ())
{
g_printerr ("Failed to contact the GConf daemon; exiting.\n");
exit (1);
}
If I comment out this condition block, then it works just fine
