I had occasion to reboot my machine today, so I could test your patch
against my bug recipe -- it worked as expected: only a barely noticeable
pause at the "Cleaning up the recentf list..." message, then startup
completed as usual.  I will test it again tomorrow with my init file and
normal recentf-file, but I expect it will also work with them.  Thanks!
(Still, I wonder what in my system is causing dbus-ping to hang...)
