@jeremy: the patch posted to Bug 464462 does fix the problem by simply ignoring any D-bus errors when trying to access NetworkManager. I applied it on my system and it now connects as it should.
To U1-client devs: is there any reason to depend on NetworkManager to check the state of the network interfaces? Wouldn't it be simpler to just try and establish the connection?
