Slightly different use case than mine; when running against Sun Java I
normally use the binary tarballs from upstream, not the
Fedora-supplied RPMs. I *did* try running Fedora Eclipse against Sun
Java (by mistake; the path to the JVM got added in front of /usr/bin
when I reorganized my login scripts) and it did produce the same
error.
