Problem here is that the telepathy-ofono mission control plugins runs a "getprop rild.libpath" in order to detect if there is at least one modem present in the device.

getprop tries to query dev/socket/property_service socket and if that fails, it fallsback to read /system/build.prop.
We decided to just allow the plugin to read build.prop. It works fine on arale and krillin, but on mako it seems the variable is not present in the file. If you run getprop manually it will have permissions to read the socket, and the right value is returned.

This makes the telepathy-ofono mission control plugin fail to create the accounts and set the property that tells mission control to never disable the account when there is no network.

We have two options here: Either add rild.libpath to build.prop, or allow getprop to access dev/socket/property_service when launched via mission-control process.
