Formatter preferences

Overview Description:
When declaring a member variable of an interface type and implementing that interface as an anonymous inner class at the declaration, the formatting of the following code is messed up. This happens not all the time; It just occurs at every second formatting.
Variant 1: First format messes up
Variant 2: First format is OK, but after adding a new line and formatting again, the source is messed up
The code before the declaration of the anonymous inner class is completely fine.

Steps to Reproduce:
1) Declare a member variable of an interface type
2) Implement the interface as an anonymous inner class at the declaration
3) Format the source code
(If not messed up directly, continue with step 4)
4) Add a new line
5) Format again

Actual Results:
Messed up formatting of code lines following the declaration

Expected Results:
Properly formatted source code

Reproducibility:
Import the attached .java file into eclipse with the attached formatter profile and follow the "steps to reproduce" section

Build Date & Platform Bug Found:
First noticed in Luna 4.4.0 and confirmed to be in Luna 4.4.1 as well

Additional Information:
Does not happen with the built-in Java convention formatter but only with the profile attached, but the behavior of jumping between OK and messed up (see description) made me suspicious. 
The problem itself isn't that grave but, even tough one can ignore whitespaces at compare, comparing with revision from repository doesn't work properly. Also committing wrongly formatted source code into the repository isn't that nice.
