It does not abort that often on 3.8.2. But 4.3, currently m7, does it an awful lot. The problem remains that there is no certain way to reproduce: sometimes I need to start 4.3m7 several times quickly in succession because as soon as the main window appears and I move the mouse over source code (which would probably show the hover containing source information) Eclipse aborts.
But there are also times that I can work for 3 hours without any problem.

I don't know if it's possible, but the huge problem now is that I can
hardly use 4.3m7 at all. Would it be possible to somehow "guard" against
this exception somewhere in the source code, so that instead of
completely dying the process continues?

In the meantime, if there is anything I can help with to get more
details on this let me know...
