Thanks Rene.

Actually, I have another question for Jonathan.  I was trying to reproduce the
FTBFS locally (it takes a bit), and so far don't see that this is truly a FTBFS,
at least not within a clean squeeze chroot.  #597454 says that the issue occurs
with docbook2x when install-info is installed, but this package doesn't get
pulled in as part of apt-get build-dep eclipse.  But now for the question...
What eclipse package are you trying to build?  Your email states:

  I'm trying to build Eclipse (4.5.0-1) for squeeze from scratch on x86_64

Is the version number there just a typo?  You should be building eclipse_3.5.2-6
for squeeze.

Cheers,
tony
