Ok, good to know.  The update mechanism changed radically in Eclipse 3.4; in 
3.4 it is better about figuring out prerequisites, whereas in 3.3 it 
requires the user to know more, if I recall.

The org.eclipse.pde.core plug-in should come from the "Eclipse PDE Plug-In 
Developer Resources" feature, which would come preinstalled with the Eclipse 
Classic or SDK packages but probably not with Eclipse for Java.  Make sure 
you've got PDE installed and then see if your TPTP install works.
