From http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/index.php:

"NOTE: Eclipse does not include a Java runtime environment
(e.g. JRE). You will need a 1.3 level Java runtime or Java development
kit installed on your machine in order to run Eclipse. Click here if
you need help finding a Java runtime."

This makes it definitely a package which belongs into contrib.

Regards,

Rene
