kwin crashes when eclipse is started. sometimes.

[Petr Sodomka]

Binary package hint: kwin

My configuration: Ubuntu Dapper x86. I have Eclipse (http://www.eclipse.org/) installed.
Java version (installed from package):

java version "1.5.0_06"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_06-b05)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_06-b05, mixed mode, sharing)

Sometimes (say 1 of 3 runs) it kills kwin when started. The KDE crash handler shows this backtrace:

Sometimes I receive similar debugging message when I push icon Desktop access (applet on KDE panel).

I use Feisty Fawn x86.

Is this by chance still occurring? I use Eclipse all day long and I start and restart it all day long as well with Kubuntu (for 2+ years now) and have never had an issue similar to this. If you are still getting this issue, which version of Kubuntu are you running? thanks!
