Fixing Eclipse on Ubuntu Karmic

Since upgrading to Karmic all my copies of Eclipse have been unusable. Text doesn't seem to appear, clicking on the GUI makes it crash, eugh. Sadly, I can't use emacs for quite everything, so here's a quick fix for Eclipse, just place this somewhere sensible in your ~/.bashrc file and you should be fine (unless you've found a different Eclispe bug, in which case you're on your own!):
