Dave-
I'm trying to stay out of this, but....

I ran into the Java3D problem on my new MacBook Pro. For some reason,
installing Java 3D for all users doesn't seem to work. Julien can look at this
when he returns. If you install just for the current user, your Java 3D
problem will go away.
As for the Jython issue, it's trying to unpack some Jython libraries into
~/.unidata/idv. The zip file is in external.jar. I'm not sure why it's
failing on your system.
Anyway, that's my $.02
