I was able to find out what was wrong.
The INI file declares a launcher.library by default on OS X when installing JBDS 7 it
points to:
org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.cocoa.macosx.x86_64_1.1.200.v20130521-0416
When you upgrade to version 7.0.1 you get an updated version called:
org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.cocoa.macosx.x86_64_1.1.200.v20130807-1835
If you update to 7.0.1 and then change the INI file to use the updated launcher.library
like this:
{quote:class=jive_text_macro jive_macro_quote}
-startup
../../../plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.0.v20130327-1440.jar
--launcher.library
../../../plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.cocoa.macosx.x86_64_1.1.200.v20130807-1835
-product

You can get rid of the JDK 6 dependency. Since it won't ask for a JDK 6 installation
to be present.
Would it be possible to update the JBDS 7 installer to version 7.0.1? I got mine here:
