It "worked for me" since I didn't test with enough command line arguments to see that the processing of the command line would be incomplete in 24.3. > Of course, "refuses to do anything useful" is very vague, so I have no > way to test whatever the OP was seeing works now. It's become clear in the meantime that the bug is indeed that file(s) given on the command line won't open in 24.3. You can still work on them once Emacs has started and complained about the non-writable ~/.emacs.d/, though.
