I start X with the descendent of a script I wrote in the early 80's to 
start X10 on an ibm 701 running BSD unix. It doesn't really lend itself 
to dbus-launch. But I played around and was able to to make opensc-tool 
work in an xterm (without disabling polkit).

I think I'll stick with --disable-polkit for now; but thank you for 
explaining how this fancy new stuff works!
