[issue1880] hal and dbus daemons enabled turn machine in to unbootable

[Tomas Bodzar (via DragonFly issue tracker)]

New submission from Tomas Bodzar <tomas.bodzar at gmail.com>:

I installed couple of packages with pkgin from 2010Q2 (Island mirror). Between
them were hal and dbus daemon.

When I try to boot with that configuration my vm will become crazy and after
start of hal it shows bunch of these messages which never ends so I need to
reset that vm, go into safe mode and remove hal from start up.
