When I try to open up a workspace I was working in, eclipse hangs in the splash screen while Loading workbench.  The .log file in the work space has the following entries:
!SESSION 2011-06-05 11:02:43.409 -----------------------------------------------

Rest of the stack trace is ommited.

The problem is it doesn't tell you what to do to bring workspace back to a state of usability.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open this workspace.
2. It hangs.
