It seems to me that, unless a ~/.eclipse/eclipserc exists, eclipse should be run normally (and eclipse.ini should be parsed). What we really need, is the possibility to customize the eclipse.ini in e.g. /etc/eclipse/eclipse.ini and ~/.eclipse/eclipse.ini so that stupid users don't go editing files in /usr/lib when they shouldn't be. If this doesn't exist already, then the bug should be forwarded upstream. There's no reason for Debian to re-invent the wheel on this one, even if the current eclipse.ini format is horrible!
