Bad cloned nodes saved in a script will result in an error like "Nothing is
named $C423F412", and are easy to recover from. "Missing close brace" is a
different issue, and one that, in my experience, seems to occur most frequently
with node types that serialize to large strings (Roto/RotoPaint, Tracker4,
SplineWarp/GridWarp, etc).
Pure speculation, but if it’s not a general Roto/RotoPaint bug (which I would
guess first and foremost), perhaps Mavericks includes some low-level changes to
the way files are buffered or written that is causing it to forget to finish
writing the script.

Wait - are you referring to clone brushes or cloned nodes? We have the
former but not the latter.
I was the artist on the Mavericks workstation and used clones a fair amount
through the project, without problems...

He did, but there were other rotopaint nodes in the scripts from this
project that didn’t come from Mocha (also using clones) that didn’t cause any
problems.

are you sure thats not the "CLONE Bug" Sure sounds like it. did the
artist on Mavericks CLONE something. (anything)

Discovered a weird bug on this project we’re wrapping up:
An artist using a Mac workstation running Snow Leopard had used Mocha
Pro and imported a rotospline into Nuke (7.09). He continued to work on the
shot with no issues.
That Nuke script was later loaded onto another workstation that was
running Mavericks and Nuke 7.09. The shot was worked on further for about a
half a day, with multiple versions being saved.
The problem: once the script was closed, it was found corrupt upon
reopening, with <missing close brace> and EOF errors. This ONLY occurred if
the script was opened and saved under Mavericks. Earlier versions of the
script that had only been used under Snow Leopard would open and close without
problem.
It’s an ugly thing to find out, as you can go for a time before
discovering that your script has blown up.
