As I said, _you_ gave an example of one bug.

You also gave a linka to one unhappy camper. This doesnt support your
contention that there is some universal Mavericks / gmail problem.

No, that is a poll of people who already claimed to have Mavericks /
gmail problems.. So what we've learned is that in a volunteer poll of
people claiming to have Mavericks / gmail problems, 85% of them claim
to have such problems.  Why it isnt 100% is a mystery to me. You only
find that poll if you are ggogling for Mavericks / gmail problems.

I'm not asserting that there is no problem. I am asserting that I and
many other users experience no problem.

You, on the other hand are asserting that Mavericks doesn't work eith
gmail, but are unable to provide a single example of a universal (or
even majority user) problem, except the badge problem, which is an
Apple Mail bug that appears unrelated to Gmail.
