Ok, you may need to upgrade them.

Perhaps the easiest way to do this is:

(if you don't have a more or less full ports collection, install it and 
update - see portsnap(8))

Install portupgrade:

 # cd /usr/ports/sysutils/portupgrade
 # make install

then

 # portinstall -R java/eclipse

The `-R' will first attempt to update all installed packages on which 
eclipse depends.
