For the hell of it, I ran 'emerge -e sys-apps/dbus dev-libs/dbus-glib'
again. six hours and a reboot later and nothing has changed :(

Many thanks, you did it for me - I was afraid of that outcome

I have re-emerged sys-apps/dbus dev-libs/dbus-glib sys-auth/polkit-kde-agent
as recommended elsewhere but it didn't help.

Never do that, unless you want everyone on your system to be allowed to gain root. As in, that is same as intentionally inserting a vulnerability to your own machine.

The solution is to recompile pkgs like dev-libs/dbus-glib after dev-libs/glib upgrade (as noted by elog in the end of glib emerge) Propably 'emerge -e sys-apps/dbus dev-libs/dbus-glib' will do the trick if nothing else does
