I noticed that I had a console-kit-daemon process running so I killed
that. This was before I uninstalled policykit for this test. After
uninstalling policykit (libpolkit2 still installed), I was unable to
start the console-kit-daemon process from a "sudo -s" shell. The same
error message was appearing in syslog each time I tried to start the
process.

initialize libpolkit

After reinstalling policykit, the console-kit-daemon process started fine.
