I don't have dbus installed either, but I'm still on the old udev.

I've been planning on updating it this weekend (so I'll have time to 
deal with any issues), but when I do an emerge -pvuDN world, dbus is NOT 
in the list of things to install.

So, since you didn't actually answer his question, I'll ask it again...

Is dbus actually *required* for even a server system? Is this 
requirement only for the new udev? If so, why is it not getting pulled 
in on my system? And if so, why is my system working now without it?
