I went to the WRI website and did a search and found a download page:

http://www.wolfram.com/solutions/mathlink/jlink/download.cgi

From there I downloaded:

JLink_3.0.2_OSX.tgz

Installed it but the problem remains. I then checked the version and it is
3.0.1 despite the download page and the download file stating that it is
3.0.2!!!

So where do we find this mysterious 3.0.2?
