Try running the following command:
$ find /usr/local/lib/eclipse -type f \! -perm +004

If it finds anything, then chmod those files to be world-readable.
After that start with a clean .eclipse again and things should work.

Maybe you have a different problem.
But if that's it, then eclipse port definitely has to be fixed to (_always_)
install files with correct permissions.
