The file "Use gwTeX tree" below works for me. I haven't spent much time
getting it perfect---I might have missed a directory or not have the
order correct but it compiles my fairly standard latex files, plus
amslatex extensions and is compatible with running gwTeX from the  
command
line.

It is set up for the new TeXLive based gwTeX distribution, and the
new directory layout for Mac TeX distributions. The path component
for binaries is /usr/texbin .

It has to be the first config file dealing with paths to load in Local.

If you also have stuff in ~/Library/texmf you need to follow this config
file by adding those paths too, either in Local or by writing an  
analogous
config file for your additions with lines like

input_folders = $c |
    ~/Library/texmf/tex/**
