Description Jim des Rivieres

Build I20030618

1. Create a new workspace
2. Turn off autobuild
3. Import all the Eclipse plug-ins from the I20030618 drop as
binary plug-ins
4. Replace some of these projects with ones from CVS
(in my case, I was loading the projects for the JFace, UI, and
Text plug-ins).
5. Build

Observe: There are build errors. It complains that a bunch of the
projects cannot be build (missing .classpath files).

Expectation: This should work.

This is a nasty bug with the CVS checkout procedure.
Workaround is to delete the projects from your workspace before checking out 
their counterparts from CVS.
