Too many tests (200+ on SL, 80+ on Lion) tests are failing on Mac port

There are so many tests failing on Snow Leopard bots:

http://build.webkit.org/builders/Lion%20Intel%20Release%20%28Tests%29

It seems like a large number of tedsts under java/lc3 are failing with the error like:

3FAIL TEST_CLASS.ambiguous(1) should be BYTE. Threw exception Error: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: More than one method matching name ambiguous and arguments [java.lang.Double]
 4  Method 1: public java.lang.String com.netscape.javascript.qa.lc3.number.Number_008.ambiguous(byte)
 5  Method 2: public java.lang.String com.netscape.javascript.qa.lc3.number.Number_008.ambiguous(boolean)

+andersca, +jhoneycutt for the java failures. I've seen this failure for a while now way before the bots started to see. If I remember correctly, it started happening after some system update.

I don't know about the java failures yet, but a couple of us are trying to make headway on the Lion failures today.

Landed some rebaselines I forgot to disable after r110072 in http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/110599.

I have noticed that some table related failures are related to Robert's caption layout work (CC'ing him if he has some thoughts).

There are no actual failures related to captions (that I can see) in:

http://build.webkit.org/builders/Lion%20Intel%20Release%20%28Tests%29/builds/6339/steps/layout-test/logs/stdio
http://build.webkit.org/builders/SnowLeopard%20Intel%20Release%20%28Tests%29/builds/38042/steps/layout-test/logs/stdio

But there are a number of tests relating to the captions changes waiting to be rebaselined in Skipped/test_expectations.txt. They require image rebaselines, and although the bots don't use the pixel results, I have treated this as a blocker to adding just the rebaselined text results myself.
