There have been some recent updates to libglib2.0 (from 2.37.3-1ubuntu2
to 2.37.5-1ubuntu1 that I installed on 2013-08-13) and the openjdk
packages (from 7u25-2.3.12-1ubuntu1 to 7u25-2.3.12-4ubuntu1, installed
today), but Eclipse still causes the JVM to segfault very consistently.
It's very hard to avoid this crash, too; the "workspace selection"
dialog is the first thing a user sees after installing and running
Eclipse. The net result is that Eclipse is unusable in the current state
of Kubuntu Saucy.

The old JVM dump attachment probably doesn't apply anymore, since the
JVM segfault now occurs at a different address in libgobject-2.0.so.
I've attached a new JVM dump that contains

# C  [libgobject-2.0.so.0+0x19908]  g_object_get_qdata+0x18

Title:
  Eclipse unusable in Kubuntu Saucy (almost immediate JVM segfault)

Status in “openjdk-7” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Steps to reproduce:

  1. Perform clean install of Kubuntu 13.10 amd64 from 2013-07-24 media.
  2. apt-get update; apt-get install eclipse
  3. Run eclipse, see "Workspace Launcher" window that suggests ~/workspace as a location
  4. Click OK.

  JVM segfaults; error log file contains

  # Problematic frame:
  # C  [libgobject-2.0.so.0+0x19838]  g_object_get_qdata+0x18

  This also occurs with saucy Eclipse on Oracle JRE 7u25, but I ensured
  that this occurs on a clean install with supported packages before
  submitting this bug report.
