You are correct. It is no longer the case when the work is unmodified. However, Debian does modify Kaffe. Even if all of those modifications were incorporated upstream, Debian still must be able to make security fixes. A security fix would kick Eclipse out of main, which really means that Eclipse should not have been in main from the beginning.
