I can reproduce this under Mac OS X 10.7.2 with the Kepler devel tree
bash-3.2$ "${JAVA_HOME}/bin/java" -version
openjdk version "1.7.0-ea"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0-ea-b217)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 21.0-b17, mixed mode)
bash-3.2$
export JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/JDK\ 1.7.0\ Developer\ Preview.jdk/Contents/Home
ant run-only
I can also reproduce it in the Ptolemy II Devel tree with Java 1.7 by
exporting JAVA_HOME as above and then doing
cd $PTII
ant run
The full stack trace is

I downloaded a new version of Java1.7 and it had a similar problem.
The fix is to check if _scrollbar is null:
public Color getBackground() {
// Under Java 1.7 on the Mac, the _scrollbar is sometimes null.
// See http://bugzilla.ecoinformatics.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5574
if (_scrollPane != null) {
return _scrollPane.getBackground();
} else {
return null;
}
}
I'm not sure why this is happening, but I suspect the problem is that in Java 1.7
setBackground is calling getBackground on subcomponents and the TextEditor
subcomponent is not completely instantiated
