I wonder why he had to do manual work like running xattr. Is that 
expected on OSX?

Thank you,

Works for me (os x 10.10). Don't know why he'd be getting that 
problem.

Same here, 10.10.

Maybe his install is borked somewhere inside.

Huh? I just downloaded the dmg, double clicked the pkg file, and it 
installed. I may have had to relax security to do it.

Looks like they're now requiring that apps be signed with the 
developer's account, which I'm guessing the dmd dmg isn't:

Downloading the zip is still the most simple and easy way, IMHO...
Not a single problem on 10.10...

It is blocked initially as it's not from an "identified 
developer", but going to security options gives you a one-time 
opt-out to let it through. Alternatively, you can permanantly 
reduce your security settings. That's just how OS X works these 
days.
