Trying to run IDV 2.8u1 on Mac (OSX 10.6.2) as a remote user with ssh -X gets
this error

The first line with "kCGErrorFailure: Set a breakpoint" crops in many different Java errors on Mac, so that alone is not
distinctive.
So what does "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: java.awt.Component" mean?
Once guess is that the IDV was compiled with a later version of Java than the one on the Mac. The java on this Mac
seems to be
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 100672 Nov 13 15:35
/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6.0/Home/bin/java
What version of Java was used to build the current 2.8u1?
