Could you elaborate on this? When does this problem occur? It sounds like Eclipse isn’t starting at all? Or is it when a certain task is performed?

It isn’t starting at all.

When googling for the error I found a post suggesting that this was due to Java 6. I commeted out the line in Info.plist (?) to select Java 5. Then Eclipse started, but Tomcat wouldn’t work, so I figured that Java 6 is needed after all.

This was an issue also with earlier Eclipse installations; not sure what the solution was.

So I take it you downloaded the new OSX zip distribution? I suppose it should note what version of Java it depends on then… (I also commented on this issue in WebDSL/25)

Yes, this concerns the zip distribution.
