Right -- the question I had meant to ask, then, was, "what do I have to 
set the soot-class-path to on OS X to get the base java.lang classes 
included?"  Those classes are not in my classpath by default, since the 
Java runtime can find them automatically.  (It is an OS-specific 
question, because OS X does not have a similar directory layout to 
other *nix systems and because Apple repackaged the classes into 
different jar files.)

Derek's answer solved my problem (thanks, Derek!).  I actually was just 
going to check the system preferences, as he suggested, but I had 
gotten sidetracked by some Apple documentation that claimed that the 
only safe path to use for java.home was /Library/Java/Home.




best,
