I'm not a committer :-), but bland@ committed the patch by Andreas Kohn 
that was circulating these lists to fix the eclipse-cairo interaction. I 
encountered similar problems like the ones you mentioned while using 
eclipse/Makefile rev. 1.44, but it worked fine with rev. 1.45 and the 
assorted patches in eclipse/files, of course. Then again I'm using i386, 
so there may be something else wrong here.
