As it has been adequately explained by Oleg Sharoiko in the PR audit 
trail, this is not a bug in Eclipse, but a bug in gtk when compiled with 
unsupported compiler optimizations. Therefore this PR should be assigned 
to freebsd-gnome or be closed altogether. It has been mentioned quite a 
few times in the freebsd-gnome mailing list that using various 
optimizations does not work and is not a high priority issue to fix.
