I'm not seeing this on x86_64 or x86 with IcedTea or gcj. Note that you shouldn't run Eclipse as root because it modifies files in /usr/share/eclipse if it can write there which can then mess up future running as a regular user.
OK, I finally had a chance to play with the problem again. Eclipse will start and run as the normal user if I use gcj. The problem appears to be only when using IcedTea.
