OS/X 9 Mavericks -- "Get Quotes" issue

I'm having a different problem with FinanceQuote Update. I've copied it 
from the .dmg to Applications. If I then try to run it from Applications 
with Gatekeeper set to "Mac App Store and identified developers", I get 
" FinanceQuote Update is damaged and can't be opened" popup, and I get 
an error message in system.log:

Oct 25 13:45:10 Cambyses kernel[0]: exec of 
/Volumes/Gnucash-Intel-2.4.13/FinanceQuote 
Update.app/Contents/MacOS/applet denied since it was quarantined by 
Firefox and created without user consent, qtn-flags was 0x00000006
Oct 25 13:45:10 Cambyses com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[271] 
([0x0-0x82082].FinanceQuote Update[2645]): Job failed to exec(3) for 
weird reason: 1

If I set Gatekeeper to Anywhere and run FQU from Applications, I get the 
expected popup saying: "FinanceQuote Update is an application created by 
Firefox. Are you sure you want to open it?" At the same time I get this 
in system.log:

Oct 25 13:53:12 Cambyses kernel[0]: exec of /Applications/FinanceQuote 
Update.app/Contents/MacOS/applet denied since it was quarantined by 
Firefox and created without user consent, qtn-flags was 0x00000006

Oct 25 13:53:12 Cambyses.local Dock[285]: no information back from LS 
about running process LSASN:{hi=0x0;lo=0x8c08c}

If I click on Open in the "Are you sure you want to open it?" popup, I get:

Oct 25 13:53:18 Cambyses kernel[0]: CoreServicesUIAg[2697] Unable to 
quarantine: 93
Oct 25 13:53:18 Cambyses.local CoreServicesUIAgent[2697]: Unable to 
continue stopped application -- error -600

And nothing happens. No terminal window with the update script running 
in it, nothing.

I installed Finance::Quote and other modules listed in gnc-fq-update by 
hand using cpan from the Terminal command line, and they all load OK in 
perl (using perl -MFinance::Quote), and Get Quotes now works.

OK, I could have just run sudo gnc-fq-update from the command line, but 
I wanted to see how the individual modules loaded.

Anyone have any idea about the quarantine error?
