after asking my users to check out the Console.app logs, the actual error
was identified as :

11/15/14 10:04:37.000 AM kernel[0]: Cannot enforce a hard page-zero for 
./cgalmesh.mexmaci64

following this message, I found a relevant previous discussion

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26351831/os-x-app-that-runs-on-10-6-to-10-9-doesnt-run-on-10-10-yosemite-why

so, it looks like I am not alone. valgrind has a similar problem too

http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.devel.bugs/1553705

now, I guess the question is to find a way to fix the problem
while keeping the binaries' backward compatibility.

any more suggestions?
