I'm seeing the same whilst trying to synchronize a CVS repository inside Eclipse. Using the java-1.5.0 VM is fine.

I can get this segfault with both IcedTea and OpenJDK. This is a problem we need to track down in OpenJDK and report upstream.
Created attachment 293751 [details] Stack trace of Segfault Stack traces (from all threads) of segfault and abort signal received at the exact moment eclipse crashes. (used fcatch)
I reported this upstream with a stack trace/hs_err_pid*.log relevant to openjdk. I will post the link to the bug report as soon as it is accepted.
For the time being, you can use this work around: run eclipse with "-vm /path/to/lib/i386/libjvm.so" instead of "-vm /path/to/bin/java"
This has been determined a bug by Sun. It will probably show up in a day or two, here: http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6661016
Fixed upstream. Will be in the next update
Updated in rawhide, will be in soon.
