How strange ...

I stopped xdm, restarted dbus, then started consolekit and there was no problem!

After that I restarted xdm which launched kdm as normal.  I guess then
that there are perhaps some xdm dependencies in the starting sequence
of consolekit.  I can add it now to rc-update and see what happens
when I boot up.

Consolekit does not like starting when there are already several
daemon processes running.  So, you should add it to the *boot* run
level, thus allowing it an early appearance.

Thanks David.  It now seems to start fine at the default run level - as 
recommended here:

About a year ago, I had all kinds of problems with consolekit refusing
to start from the default run level.  Hence, I moved it to boot and all
has been well since then.

I see ... good to know if it starts playing difficult.  Thanks for sharing.
