I have patched (Joe Barnett's patch) and compiled libgtk+2.0 2.11.6-1ubuntu4 myself from source (http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/source/gtk+2.0). Attached is the resulting libgtk-x11-2.0.so binary.

If you want to run Eclipse normally (for the time being) I STRONGLY recommend you to get the latest Eclipse Europa packages from eclipse.org

If, like me, you have to run an older version of Eclipse, you can try my patched lib. It works for me, but obviously I cannot guarantee it'll work for you. Don't blame me if you can't boot into Gnome anymore.

To install:
sudo rm /usr/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.1106.0-matthijs /usr/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0

To uninstall:
sudo rm /usr/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.1106.0 /usr/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0
