[news.eclipse.tools.pdt] Hanging on exit, not saving workspace

[poehler@xxxxxxxxxxxxx (Paul Oehler)]

Hi,

Since upgrading to PDT 2, (while loving the many new features) I've often 
had a problem when trying to shutdown eclipse - it will pretend to exit, 
but a "eclipse.exe" program will remain lingering in the task manager.  I 
can kill this, and then restart eclipse, but it won't have my workspace 
settings from the previous session saved.

It doesn't happen every time, but it seems if I work long enough, it will 
consistently happen when I go to exit.

Anyone know how to fix this issue?

Thanks,

Paul

Here is the last stacktrace from the error log when I went to exit:
