To see which package(s) pulled in dbus in your setup you can use
depclean, like on mine I get this:
$ sudo emerge --depclean dbus -pv
Calculating dependencies ... done!
sys-apps/dbus-1.2.3-r1 pulled in by:
app-misc/strigi-0.6.4
dev-libs/dbus-glib-0.80
dev-python/dbus-python-0.83.0-r1
dev-util/monodevelop-2.0
dev-util/subversion-1.6.1
gnome-base/gconf-2.24.0
gnome-base/gnome-keyring-2.22.3-r1
gnome-base/libbonobo-2.24.1
kde-base/kdebase-kioslaves-4.2.2
kde-base/kdelibs-4.2.2-r1
media-libs/libgphoto2-2.4.4
media-video/vlc-0.9.9a
net-dns/avahi-0.6.24-r2
net-ftp/filezilla-3.2.3.1
net-im/pidgin-2.5.5
net-misc/networkmanager-0.7.0
net-print/cups-1.3.10
net-wireless/wpa_supplicant-0.6.9
sys-apps/hwinfo-14.19
x11-libs/qt-dbus-4.5.0
x11-misc/google-gadgets-0.10.5
xfce-base/xfce4-session-4.6.0
so all of those packages explicitly depend on dbus and very likely
will want it to be running :)
