What is your OS version? For me it works on 10.11.5. As your error is from a system call, it could indicate that the issue is related to OS version.
In addition the —-project option is not documented in mate --help, where it still is documented as —uuid.
The --uuid option is different as that is for referencing a specific document. You are correct though that --project is currently undocumented.
