The appropriate checks are:
In Java: osName.contains("OS X")
In shell: uname -s == Darwin
While Darwin will also cover the non-graphical Darwin OS, for all intents and purposes, Darwin is accurate enough for the OpenJDK project.
To be perfectly pedantic from the command line, you can always use the sw_vers tool, but that does not exist on other platforms:
% sw_vers -productName
This will return "Mac OS X", and "Mac OS X Server" in currently released versions of Mac OS X. It's value should precisely match System.getProperty("os.name").
