I still do not know if embedding JDT 3.4 is worth trying (from both a
technical point of view as it may bring in all of the eclipse source
code, and from a Debian policy point of view). I really need to find
some time and fire up eclipse in order to make gwt compile against JDT
3.5.

But first, I need to merge my draft work with what exists from the
pkg-eucalyptus repository. I doubt I'll have something interesting,
but who knows.

I did not document the missing dependencies, I was using a
try-to-build and fix approach. I was focusing in getting the compiler
to build, which is what I need. Someone from Fedora did that work[2].
