Okay, it turns out that on OS X (at least on 10.4) Java's exec doesn't actually look at your PATH variable. I'm not sure exactly which directories it *does* look at, but one of them is /usr/bin. So in this case sym linking the git executables into /usr/bin fixed the problem. James - this might be worth mentioning in an installation guide or faq somewhere, so I figured I'd pass it on to you also.
