I've reported the bug KDE upstream as https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=327441 . Strangely enough, they changed the status to 'FIXED, CLOSED' even as they not have looked at it. So I'm deleting the upstream link here to signal that the problem is still NOT solved.

This is bug is triggered from an 'official' eclipse install. I haven't tried the eclipse that comes with ubuntu because it is not what a professional java programmer needs. Observed behaviour: - Eclipse regulary crashes (see included VM dumps). The bug is normally trigger by hitting a SWT Button (e.g. Search -> File Search -> Cancel Button). Expected behaviour: - libglib2.0-0 in saucy should work without any issue against a 'offical' eclipse/swt.
