Hi,

Just for the record. At work I have a new pc with FreeBSD-9 on it and  
eclipse crashed on a SIGILL from libxul every time I hovered a keyword and  
it wanted to show some javadoc. It happened with openjdk6 and openjdk7.  
After some searching I found a workaround on the eclipse bug list.
After adding the following option to eclipse.ini everything works fine.
-Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.XULRunnerPath=/usr/local/bin/xulrunner

I think (wild guess) for some reason it picked up some library's from  
firefox or something like that.

Ronald.
