I finally figured out what caused this.  I had mentioned clearing out
all the plugins, etc. from my ~/.xxe directory.  What I never thought
of until I tried building xxe from source (to try to debug this
further) was that when doing java development for my plugin, I had
installed xxe*.jar in ~/Library/Java/Extensions/ .  That was the
easiest way for XCode to find the symbols for xxe - but at the time I
knew it would be trouble when upgrading.  I didn't realize it would
cause the application to fail, and I had basically forgotten about
having done this by the time I was trying to upgrade.

I'm sharing in case anyone else ever runs into a problem like this. 
(Set your CLASSPATH instead!  It's way easier in the end!)

As always, thanks for a great product!

  Bill
