Eclipse on OSX Quick-Tip: Access Restriction Error

I have repeatedly come across this problem with Maven, Eclipse and e2eclipse on OSX:

Access restriction: The type Resource is not accessible due to restriction on required library /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6.0/Classes/classes.jar

    Why would I use Eclipse, when there is the IDEA community edition? ;-)

    1. Eclipse being used at most clients I have been working with. I have never been working with a client that was using IDEA.

    2. Plugins

    3. Responsiveness (this is a subjective impression on my MacBook)
