libvrtest_api.dylib

Hello! I'm trying to get SteamVR working from within steam on my mac. Every time I try to run it I get the following error:

VR Mode failed to initialized for unknown reasons. (Error: Connect to VR Server Failed (301))

I think this may have to do with the fact that the libvrtest_api.dylib file in the SteamVR/bin/osx32/ directory is an empty (0 byte) file. I'm reasoning this because when I try to run vrcmd_osx I get the following error:

dyld: Library not loaded: @loader_path/libvrtest_api.dylib
  Referenced from: /Users/frank/Library/Application Support/Steam/SteamApps/common/SteamVR/bin/osx32/vrcmd_osx
  Reason: no suitable image found.  Did find:
    /Users/frank/Library/Application Support/Steam/SteamApps/common/SteamVR/bin/osx32/libvrtest_api.dylib: file too short
    /Users/frank/Library/Application Support/Steam/SteamApps/common/SteamVR/bin/osx32/libvrtest_api.dylib: file too short

I tried to copy in the version of libvrtest_api.dylib that is in this repository but it seems too old as I now get errors about missing entry points.

Any idea what is going on here and how I can get the latest version of this binary?
