I'm running the Cask version of MacVim 7.4.258 on OS X 10.10.2. When I try to open a TeX file, the MacVim window immediately dies. There's no information in the Console log or anywhere else I can find. After opening another MacVim window, I attempted to attach to the process using lldb, but I get "attach failed: lost connection". It doesn't matter which of the process IDs I use that are revealed by `ps auxgww | grep -i vim`, though presumably the most recent is the one I want. When I attempt to attach using Xcode, the options on the submenu under Attach to Process are all grayed out.
I used to be extremely familiar with debugging C and C++ code on Windows, but I've basically never done it on Macs, so I'm feeling a little lost. I could try disabling various plugins, but that wouldn't tell me where in the C code MacVim is crashing. For what it's worth, the same TeX files open fine in MacVim on another machine. [A few minutes later]: I found https://github.com/b4winckler/macvim/wiki/Debugging.
