[Bug 483676] Re: eclipse 3.5.1+repack~2-0ubuntu1 gives 64-bit runtime error on 32-bit system

Reliably reproduced the problem thusly:

Create a new VM with VirtualBox 3.1.2, 4 gig virtual disk
Install xubuntu lucid alpha1 live CD
# apt-get update
# apt-get dist-upgrade
reboot
# apt-get install sun-java6-jdk
# apt-get install eclipse-platform
create a new user, log in as that user
$ eclipse

At this point eclipse will fail to launch, leaving the aforementioned
failure to load 64 bit SWT libraries on 32 bit JVM error in
~/workspace/.metadata/log

There are no '.so' files under /usr/share/eclipse, but /usr/lib/eclipse
has ELF 32-bit libraries.

The swt .so libraries are shipped as part of the swt jars.  Those also
appear to be 32-bit.  This is probably a bogus error caused by something
else (like not being able to load gcj-specific libraries with sun's
jdk?)
