It looks like not OSX-specific, but a common problem when
Memoranda is launched from executable JAR-file directly. It
is a packaging issue (a bug in Ant buildfile??) with CLASSPATH.
As a workaround I can suggest to put all Memoranda extra
libraries (JARs from "lib" directory) into the CLASSPATH
before starting. It is what a startup script (sh or bat) does.
Though, I highly recommend to use startup scripts if possible.

This may be related - textur mentions fixing the classpath when building memoranda.jar, and that the build.xml might have been a bit borked.
