Test #2: change the Delay of the model to something relatively slow 
(maybe 1 tick per second).  Does this still cause things to lock up?

Test #3: In the step(...) method in Display2D.java, there's a line that 
looks like this:

             if (isMacOSX && movieMaker == null)

Change this to

             if (true)

What happens then?
