The next release of AJDT will show this structure.  It should coincide with
the AspectJ 1.1 final.

Please do submit this bug to AJDT.  We're not testing on OSX yet, but we
would like to support it.  I'm doubtful that we will have time to start
testing on OSX before 1.1.  The quickest way to get this working would be
for an OSX user to contribute a patch to the current AJDT build.
