The key part of the OP's posting appears to be instructions from an
earlier message on this list:

So - to answer your 'why on earth would anyone want to run that'
question, that mail message sets up Eclipse users to expect later
versions not to work and to have to revert to the specified earlier
version.

If we have evidence that more recent versions do, in fact, work
correctly with Eclipse, then perhaps we should document that very
clearly and try to make sure it shows up in a search of the archives in
at least as prominent a place as that email message.  Or, given that
this question comes up entirely too frequently, we could put a very
prominent 'here's how to get it working with Eclipse' on one of the main
CVSNT pages...
