I'm using the following java version and compiler:

Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_13-b05-241)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_13-121, mixed mode, sharing)

If you need more information just tell me.

Thanks for your help,
Simon

Thanks, using the version from
http://nice.sourceforge.net/nice-current.jar and replacing
external/nice-bootstrap.jar worked fine and I could install nice on Mac OS
X.

But why is the distributed version of nice (in
external/nice-bootstrap.jar) outdated and doesn't work to compile its own
version? Can this be fixed (for the next release)?

Thanks,
Simon

Might be an old version of bootstrap nice compiler?
Usually you have to download the latest version of the compiler.
Try http://nice.sourceforge.net/nice-current.jar
