Are you on Snow Leopard?  If so, you manually have to install a copy of Java 5 
and overwrite the Mac symlinks in just the right way.  You don't have to change 
the default system JVM to 1.5 though.

Does the symlink /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.5.0 
point to a 1.6 JVM?  That is what it does on Snow Leopard by default. forrest 
is somehow not forward compatible with Java 1.6.  The trick to getting it to 
work is to both set the property to that symlink, and make sure that symlink 
points to an actual java 1.5 install.

There are a few threads from the Avro dev list over the past ~7 months that 
discuss the steps needed to get it to work in more detail.
