No (but I will, and will report back).

Instead, I installed Xubuntu (using the XFCE desktop & GDM). But that 
has it's own set of (known) problems wrt to remote graphical login using 
VNC, namely that GDM doesn't fully support XDMCP, so no desktop is 
created after trying to login remotely (I had the same problem when I 
upgraded from Debian Etch to Lenny).

I'll install Maverick in a VM to check, but I'm installing a new hard 
drive in the machine that contains all my VMs and since I'm a belt & 
suspenders kind of guy, I use the "-cc" option to mkfs, so creating 500 
MB partitions takes almost 40 hours each. I expect that it'll be about a 
week before I can report back.
