Results with  MESA 8118 on MacOS 10.11.5 using 20160404 SDK.  Now I get the same value you do if mdot_omega_power = 0.


1 . inlist_15M_dynamo as in test_suite  —>   mdot_omega_power = 0.43

290   3.2227903931317647E+005 (star_age)


2. inlist_15M_dynamo modified  —>   ! mdot_omega_power = 0.43

289   3.2193608523103758E+005 (star_age)


3. inlist_15M_dynamo modified  —>   mdot_omega_power = 0

289   3.2164962284331943E+005 (star_age)

Set to 0 to disable this feature” but commenting mdot_omega_power had the same value as setting it to zero as would be expected.
