That's good.

I notice that dbus-daemon-launch-helper contains the string
org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.PermissionsInvalid

I suppose what perplexes me is why the error is "identified" like
that. If the program (which is one that I assume noone ever runs
directly, except perhaps its developer) identified itself, it would
make tracking down problems much easier.
