Bug#347749: eclipse-platform-common: allow documented -vmargs for /usr/bin/eclipse

[Bastian Kleineidam]

Package: eclipse-platform-common
Version: 3.1.1-8
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Hi,

the current /usr/bin/eclipse script does not allow the -vmargs option.
The patch scans for -vmargs and appends the custom options for the native
eclipse binary.
This way, I can run "eclipse -vmargs -Xmx512" for example.

Regards,
  Bastian
