Just to follow up, I did a an "Archive and Install" on the borked
system last night, preserving network settings and users. Then I
installed each update one by one. And my Eclipse/WOLips didn't blow
up at the end of it. Still no closer to knowing what happened, but it
now all works as advertised once again. Thanks for your feedback
yesterday guys. It prompted me to try just one... more... time... ;-)
