Then don't use an alternative proprietary OS ;-)  Why don't they support 
it, it's hardly new?  Is it far away?

Sorry, that wasn't helpful :-)

Osmosis has required 1.6 for a while now and so far everybody has been 
able to download the appropriate JDK1.6 from Sun.  Presumably that's not 
an option on OS X.  It should be possible to run on 1.5 if you delete 
the polygon task and factory, update the TaskRegistrar class to remove 
the reference to it and recompile.  I haven't tested this for a while so 
I can't guarantee that no other JDK1.6'isms haven't slipped in.  I can 
provide assistance if required.  I'm extremely hesitant to maintain two 
versions of osmosis to support a very limited audience but may be 
persuaded if enough noise is made.
