I don't know wether this is the sam problem I had, but I fixed my issues with the following:
%%
editing
/usr/local/texlive/2013/texmf-dist/tex/luatex/luaotfload/luaotfload-blacklist.cnf
adding Skia.ttf, which causes the problem to this file
(see http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/140840/lualatex-luaotfload-broke-after-upgrading-to-mavericks )
%%
