Quoting from help:
(
http://dev.eclipse.org:8080/help/content/help:/org.eclipse.jdt.doc.user/refe
rence/ref-123.htm )
-----------------
Projects tab
In the Required projects on the build path list, you can add project
dependencies by selecting other workbench projects to add to the build path
for this new project. TheSelect All and Deselect All buttons can be used to
add or remove all other projects to or from the build path.
Adding a required project indirectly adds all its classpath entries marked
as 'exported'. Setting a classpath entry as exported is done in the Order
and Export tab.
The projects selected here are automatically added to the referenced
projects list. The referenced project list is used to determine the build
order. A project is always build after all its referenced projects are
built.
-----------------
To answer the original question: There is a subtle difference between
references in the "Java build path" pages and plain project references. The
first kind change the classpath, the second do not.
(I assume the reason is that "Project References" are a generic feature of
eclipse (independent of any programming language or other foolishness) while
the Java build path is specific to Java.)
