Re: Eclipse CDT 2.0 port

Submitted for testing. The Eclipse 3 port needs to have its package name
adjusted to indicate which WS is being used to allow plugin ports to use
the correct WS. If there are no complaints/comments/etc. by the end of
the week I will send-pr this port.

Nice work, thanks. Some observations:
- You would probably want to change the runtime dependency from
eclipse-3 to eclipse, since when the port is updated it would have the
same name.
- Perhaps you would consider performing the same gymnastics that we
perform in the eclipse port for JDT, i.e. substitute "linux" for
"freebsd". You only need to bring along a largish chunk of
eclipse/scripts/configure and fix the pkg-plist accordingly.
- There are erroneous version numbers in pkg-plist that refer to the
1.2.0 version, despite having installed the 2.0 version. You can verify
this by observing 'make deinstall' fail. The method I used to create the
pkg-plist contents for eclipse is something along these lines (from memory):
# make install
# cd /usr/local
# find eclipse -type f | sort > /tmp/pkg-plist
# find eclipse -type d | sort -r > /tmp/plist.d
# sed -e "s/^eclipse/@dirrm eclipse/g" < /tmp/plist.d >> /tmp/pkg-plist
- In pkg-plist you hard-code the gtk versions regardless of the user's
choice while building the port. You may look for an alternative in the
eclipse port where there are PLIST_SUB directives for stuff like that.
While you are there, why not do the same automation for the version
number in order to minimize future port updates?
Ain't porting fun? :-)
