I have been asked to post some more information about the eclipse bug:

Basically the whole help and information system does not work . See earlier 
mail asking for committer to upgrade ports tree to 3.02 which people on the 
eclipse newcomers newsgroup seem to think should solve the problem (I am 
uncertain whether that means including a new fix). If someone is taking alook 
at this could you please let me know.

Here are the details:
OS 5.3 SDK5

Browser is used to deliver help service and has following message:
"The document that you have requested is not available. The link may be wrong, 
or you may not have the corresponding product feature installed."

The eclipse process is running:
dns1# ps -aux | grep eclipse

Clearly eclipse has opened the port:

There are the same number  of files/directories in  
/usr/ports/java/eclipse-devel/work/plugins/ 
hierarchy that are identical to the file names listed above.

The only files found by
dns1# locate eclipse | grep help/
are in the /usr/ports/java/eclipse-devel/work/plugins/or.eclipse.help/ 
hierarchy

I am wondering whether help files were correctly processed/transfered  to the 
correct locations in the /usr/local/eclipse/plugins/ hierarchy - but  there 
are so many files in such a complex system that makes it difficult for a 
newcomer to eclipse to tell which files are meant to be where [and what 
directory/file transformations need to take place (if any)].

So I am hoping someone with a lot more experience than I can help resolve the 
problem. I really need eclipse to work for me
