Re: [rvm-research] Running RVM fails in Mavericks

[Erik Ö. <eri...@ln...>]

Hi,

I tried using both the mercurial head and the last official stable release (3.1.3) with the same outcome.
In my ant build file we find:

host.name=x86_64-osx
target.name=x86_64-osx
config.name=development

Compiled with GNU gcc 4.7 installed via macports (tried 4.9 too, same outcome)
No other strange compiler flags added, just a clean development build. (tried the prototype and production configurations too, same outcome)

This was attempted on two independent clean installs of OS X 10.9.2.
There were no compilation errors, but the previously mentioned crash always occurs when running rvm.

Any ideas?
