Here's the long overdue update from eclipse 3.4.1 to 3.4.2. There's a
lot of improvements bundled with the update in the way that the eclipse
platform is built on FreeBSD.

- - We are now installing a real eclipse product.
- - Only the jar files for the platform are built, dramatically reducing
the time necessary to build (thanks to the Fedora devs for the idea and
the basic procedure).
- - Lot of small fixes to the build procedure to make future imports easier
- - Some of the bundles are pre-extracted during install to improve
launching time.
- - jdk1.6 is required to build but any jre (1.5 or 1.6) can be used in
Preferences->Java->Installed JREs. Java 1.4 is unfortunately not
supported at this time.
- - Switch to x86_64 architecture name instead of amd64 to be more in-line
with mainline eclipse.

The bad news is that after this update, all the plugins installed as a
user with the Update Manager will have to be reinstalled. The location
of the eclipse metadata has moved to be more in-line with what's used on
other OSes (like linux). Future updates to 3.4.x should not require
reinstalling plugins, simply running the 'setup-user' target should be
sufficient.

If I get enough positive feedback, I'll ask that it get committed after
the freeze for 7.2 is over.
