Eclipse on win64-Collection of common programming errors

I’m using Eclipse with a 64bit VM. However I have to use Java 1.5, because with Java 1.6, even 1.6.0_10ea, Eclipse crashed when changing the .classpath-file. On Linux I had the same problems and could only get the 64bit Eclipse to work with 64bit Java 1.5.

The problem seems to be with the just in time compilation, since with vmparam -Xint eclipse works — but this is not a sollution, because it’s slow then.

Edit:

With 1.6.0_11 it seems to work.

1.6_10 final might work as well as mentioned in the comment, but I’ve not tested that.
