Ryan,

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you but it looks like you've made some 
good progress with your mac installation.

The "Class: XmTextField" error is probably a Unicode font issue, it was 
discussed quite a bit in the past on gembud.

The solution many people found was to set the environmental variable LANG to 
"C".
