beast 1.10.0 with java 10 on macos #1007

java -jar beast.jar opens fine.
BEAST v1.10.0 GUI app, however, does not launch.

Unfortunately, this occurred on a student's laptop during the SISMID workshop. I am still running 9.0.4 and am having no problems. BTW, on the student's laptop, I tried downgrading (unsuccessfully) to java 9. java 10 just would not go away.

Found the issue (I think). It was a -d64 flag in the launch script for Mac Desktop Apps. This seems to have been removed as a command line option and was throwing a hidden error.

Closing this for now.
