Attempting to enter accented character causes OSM to get stuck

[wiml@…]

Attempting to enter the name of the hamlet "Boucan Careé". Created a point, selected presets->places->hamlet, started entering the name. Since this is on a Mac, the accented E is entered by typing option-e to get an accent, and then e to place the letter e under that accent. As soon as I typed option-e, the exception dialog appeared. Whenever I try to dismiss it it reappears --- I can't get an event in edgewise to dismiss the "place name" dialog.

(Note: After repeated keyboard-mashing I eventually managed to erase the contents of the textfield, which allowed me to cancel the operation and continue working)

I'm runing Mac OS 10.6.2, which says it has "Java SE 6".
