OK, I happened across this on a learning experience type project including IDE. I thought I had changed it to pick up the new default developer preview but  just got far enough t-o realize that it had not. I was back on the Apple non-openjdk jvm. The problem is in fact present as well with the developer preview.

It didn't appear to duplicate anything so I filed a new MACOSX_PORT-524 bug report.

It again seemed possibly a little relevant and not so moot.
