Great information!
I tried the same process for eclipse-devel on FreeBSD with success as follows.
0) Install xulrunner from ports (/usr/ports/www/xulrunner)
1) replace the contents of xulrunner with the contens of /usr/local/lib/xulrunner
2) rewrite MANFESTS accordingly.
3) restart eclipse. Bingo!!

I needed to keep the directory name org.mozilla.xulrunner.gtk.linux.x86 (linux!!) , maybe due to it is hard coded in 7 modules using vpe.
It is ideal to make it platform independent, but, anyway, it will be applicable to any other platforms that has xulrunner.

it is not hardcoded in the modules - we just load the matching xulrunner for the architecture/os that eclipse returns.

Hi,

I tried to follow the instructions from naveed.hassam, but when I start the eclipse it crashes and generates a huge log, the begin of it:
