Maya.app  is actually a directory on OSX; you need to specify

/Applications/Autodesk/maya2011/Maya.app/Contents/bin/maya

as the maya executable.

reading jobtypes/maya/job.conf var maya_path I think the 2011 mac os x maya dir is not included. For windows it is. also Linux 2011 path is missing.

IMHO: if it were included he would not need to specify the maya exec path.

nice catch; I've filed it as a bug.
