Same problem with Kile. Went to Settings > Configure Kile > Editor: Open/Save > Advanced and changed the suffix of "Backup on save" from ~ to "BACKUPONSAVE".
That cured the problem for me. I mean it's a workaround, not a clean solution. I'm also on Maverick and hoping that the bug will be released on that distrib.
