Looking elsewhere, I happened to find a solution here:
https://www.digisoftinc.org/wiki/index.php/Linux_Notes#Eclipse_3.4_and_Ubuntu_9.10_Fix
It's not clear whether the author(s) discovered it by them/him/herself or
whether copied+pasted from somewhere else.
For reference, it involves installing xulrunner and editing eclipse.ini, i.e.:
1. sudo apt-get install xulrunner
2. echo '-Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.XULRunnerPath=/usr/lib/xulrunner'
>>/usr/lib/eclipse/eclipse.ini
After doing these two steps, I restarted eclipse. The SIGSEGV on
pressing the Cancel button on the Install new software ... menu no
longer happens.
