Description
If I try to build and run "ant run" a fresh clone of the Arduino repository, ide-1.5.x-java7 branch (on Mac OS X 10.9.3 with javac 1.6.0_65), I get the stack trace below. I'm assuming this is because the new appbundler requires Java 7, but it would be good to document this somewhere or provide a workaround for Java 6 -- especially since it's the version that Mac OS X prompts you to install if you try to run Java software.
