Thanks for taking your time to report this issue and help making Ubuntu better.
I can confirm this issue, eclipse 3.8.1-11 fails to start when I attempt to run it on Ubuntu bionic. Based on the error message, I found a corresponding bug report in Debian, so I have attached a bug watch. Btw, when reporting bugs in the future please use apport by using 'ubuntu-bug' and the name of the package affected. This adds version numbers and additional information automatically, making it easier to process bug reports.
