Are you just using the default theme?  What happens when you launch your eclipse with the environment variable SWT_GTK3=0 set?

I run it with default theme. SWT_GTK3=0 works fine as for many GTK 3 related issues. It can be considered as workaround other than mentioned change of background color.

I cannot reproduce this issue on 4.8 M7 and GTK3.22.
