This is soooo embarrassing...
Basically I compiled GWT and then pointed my GWT library in Eclipse to
`build/lib` which doesn't include the native library libgwt-ll.jnilib.
I discovered this via John's suggestion of printing the exception
thrown in LowLevelSaf.java:
Your GWT installation may be corrupt
at com.google.gwt.dev.shell.LowLevel.init(LowLevel.java:106)
at com.google.gwt.dev.shell.mac.LowLevelSaf.init(LowLevelSaf.java:135)

at com.google.gwt.dev.HostedMode.main(HostedMode.java:241)
java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Unable to load required native library
'gwt-ll'. Detailed error:
Can't load library: /Users/eighty/Java/GWT/trunk/build/lib/libgwt-ll.jnilib)
The solution, of course, is pointing the GWT library in Eclipse to
`build/staging/gwt-mac-0.0.0` instead.
I guess this might be a +1 for the comment on line 137 of LowLevelSaf.java?

Thanks!
