Quick update: 

I have checked in a small change to tools/src/sf/sfsource.c
that allows the C-based Serial Forwarder to work on MacOS.

Onto getting the Java tools to talk to it (possibly by excising
the dependency on javax.comm). Has anyone tried TOSComm on MacOS?

OK, so this would be the TOSComm equivalent for Tinyos 2.x. 
Nice.

Indeed. Does the C-based SF work on TinyOS 2.x?
