the ensime-server project has code that assumes that any self-respecting JDK would have $JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar, but this isn't true of Apple-packaged JDKs. (Oracle took over the packaging on OS X starting with JDK 7, so that's why only 6 is affected.)

the error occurs during extraction, so at least you find out quickly.

we're not working on the 2.11.x/JDK6 build much these days; most of the action nowadays is on JDK 8. and we usually run the build on Jenkins, not locally. so I'm not likely to fix this, but I wanted to document it.
