 If installing xulrunner-dev works around the issue I think it might be
a valid option for a minimal approach to get it fixed in stable. Or is
the showIntro=false hack possible to ship in a system wide configuration
file? That would also be a valid option. Stating that one doesn't want
to fix it in stable somehow leaves the impression that the packagers
think that eclipse in stable is not to be supported - and somehow
suggests that the release team should get it removed with the next point
release.

 Thanks,
Rhonda
