That's a side effect of the Mac application bundle API, and I guess it means that it's still true that "gnucash doesn't like being run with --add-price-quotes from the command line on a mac", at least when it's installed as an app bundle. ....

Is it reasonable, then, to file a bug report about "Gnucash fails when 
run with with --add-price-quotes from the command line on a mac"? And to 
modify the wiki page on Online_quotes accordingly?  I can understand it 
not working, but I'd like to have this problem documented for others.

Thank you for the clarification.
