Obviously I should reply to myself:

1. It's the "copy across new skycat.cfg" trigger that is the problem. If I say "cancel" GAIA starts up. GAIA crashes if I ask it to overwrite my config file.
2. The auto tools dev GAIA does not trigger the problem because commit 5e27cd204dbeeb3daad is newer than my dev build.

I attach my old skycat.cfg to allow people to test the copy trigger on OS X.

Is GAIA working for people after doing the rebuild with the new autoconf tools?

On OS X GAIA worked last week. Now GAIA shuts down immediately. OS X has a notoriously useless valgrind but I'm getting:

and lots of similar invalid reads, then bad writes:

With the auto tools test branch from 31st January GAIA does work so it's not the new auto tools as such.

I first would like to know if (a) GAIA works for anyone after the update and (b) it specifically works for people running mavericks.

Thanks. Hope I'm doing something silly.
