Hello,

just for information, this may not be related, but synctex was indeed
broken until recently. Running synctex view directly would result in:

SyncTeX ERROR: SyncTeX Error: Bad preamble 

It is fixed in the current revision.  I just updated and it's gone.
It's not OS X specific, BTW.  I noticed the same thing on Solaris. 
There it caused emacs + auctex + xpdf to fail to display, whereas
Skim+Emacs in OS X did not seem affected.
