Matlab 2014b crashes when I try to modify the system path in Yosemite Mac OS 10.10

When I click "Set Path", Matlab usually hangs and I can't regain control without terminating the program. If I am able to make it into the set path window, Matlab will freeze when I try to add new folders to the path. Have any other users experienced problems setting the path (using the Matlab GUI) in Yosemite?

Same on Mavericks 10.9.5. It's another issue.

This is definitely an issue.

Intermittently, doing things in the workspace browser will hang Matlab 2014b on OSX 10.10.
