I agree that we don't need a repo copy, but I would like to go one step
further; we don't need two different versions of eclipse in the ports tree.
There are about two dozen ports that rely on eclipse. Most of them can
probably easily be upgraded to work with eclispe-3.2. I'd prefer updating
the ports, and updating eclipse to 3.2.
What do you think?
