Lutz is exaggerating quite a lot with that statement.
We have released After Effects CC (12.0.1) for Mac OS X v10.9 (Mavericks):

IMPORTANT: The After Effects CC (12.0.1) update fixes a crash on Mac OS X (v10.9). There is no need to install this update on any other operating system. After Effects CC (12.1) is coming soon for all operating systems and includes this same fix plus many more features and bug fixes.
This update is only available as a manual download (not through the Creative Cloud automatic update mechanism) to prevent users on versions of Mac OS X other than v10.9 (Mavericks) from installing it unnecessarily.
Most people having trouble with this update are trying to patch a trial version, which won’t work.
Adobe After Effects CS6 (11.0.3) was released a little while ago with this fix, plus fixes for many other crashes and bugs. Details: http://adobe.ly/AE_CS6_1103

Yeah, just thought everything is so quiet... Must be one of those days... Everybody probably busy reinstalling their pre-Mavericks versions of Mac OS X so they can work because Adobe blew it and nothing works on 10.9... *lol*
