Were you using svn+ssh:// protocol?

If JavaHL is installed (which you have to do yourself on OS X), then
it will be used as default. If it is not installed, we fall back to
SVNKit. So your colleague probably just does not have it installed.
Some Subversion binary packages from the command line include it, some
do not.

Yes. I am going to blog that tonight if you want more details. But
for starters, you need to install the 1.1.x version of Subclipse. See
