I've sent this to MPC since they made the call, but this looks like a problem with your java8 install, not with eclipse:

I've seen similar in the past occasionally under Linux, with a number of different native libraries involved. 

I was never able to reproduce, but it always seemed to have AWT and GTK in the mix somewhere. Have you tried with or without GTK3 support? I.e. do this before launching Eclipse:

export SWT_GTK3=0

or

export SWT_GTK3=1

I'm closing this as a dupicate of bug 438598, because there's more detail there
