Just catching up on being way behind with email...

The port moving has been on my TODO list for far too long.  Please go ahead
with it if you've got the bandwidth to do so.  You probably want to apply
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=181124 to eclipse-devel first
though.

Sounds like getting 4.3 working is going to be a pretty major effort given
the follow ups in the thread.

I'd also like to see Eclipse working much better on FreeBSD.
