Hi.

I am using Eclipse 3.2.2 with JDK 1.6.0 both from ports without any
problems or instabilitites on a FreeBSD 7.0-RC2/amd64. That runs perfectly
stable about one year now and is used mainly for Java Development
including the Subversion plugin.

The bad side... i played a bit with Eclipse 3.3 a few months ago and got a
few crashes of the JDKs and/or Eclipse but some of them seemed to be
related to FreeBSD-current/threading so i don't know if this is relevant
anymore.

Maybe you could be a bit more verbose on what environment you use.
