The problem persists in build 58, but I can't open the .jar file with textedit to apply the below fix. Any suggestions?
Are you just double-clicking the .jar file? If so, that's the problem--when you download MapTool, you need to use a launch script. For Mac OS X, the launch script is "Launch MapTool.command", which should be in the MapTool folder. You'll need to add execute permissions before you can do this, however. See here for basic instructions:

On that topic, what ever became of setting the build process up so that the Mac distribution is packaged as a .app (as discussed in the linked topic)?

Ah, Apple, I love you so much that the betrayal is even sharper when you turn on me.
