Well unless you are using homebrew compilers explicitly [i.e
--with-cc=gcc-4.9] you are using Xcode compilers. [i.e /usr/bin/gcc -
which is an alias to clang]

Yes - both maint and master should work.

[as discussed - valgrind might not work. And 10.9 and 10.10 presumably
use the same version of xcode. And we can confirm gfortran from
homebrew works on 10.10]

However the decision to upgrade to 10.10 (or not) shouldn't depend on
petsc requirements.
