  As it turns out, the problem was that you need to have the gail
bridge in your GTK_MODULES when you run Eclipse.  This is apparently
needed for any GTK+ app that is not a GNOME app, as this is something
GNOME does for free in its initialization.

  I'm going to look into maybe trying to add this to the Eclipse
launcher by default.

    export GTK_MODULES="gail:atk-bridge"
