Looks like a VM issue.

JAVA_HOME setting is ignored when starting eclipse. The following
command should help to make sure you use your JDK:
echo "JAVA_HOME=/path/to/your/jdk" >> ~/.eclipse/eclipserc
(The default is to use GCJ or any other free runtime you might have
installed. You can verify this in Eclipse's about dialog)

Reporting this to the bug tracking systems helps tracking this problem
more easily. That would be great. Then we can track easier if its a
GNU classpath problem or a kaffe problem or something different.
