Patches to java/eclipse to provide powerpc64 support.

Eclipse does not currently support FreeBSD on PowerPC64, although it has
support for Linux on PowerPC (32-bit and 64-bit).

The included patches adds support for building on eclipse on PPC64. Patches are
against eclipse 4.6 (neon) in ports tree r424411 (2016-10-21).

Patching Instructions:  

     -  Download and copy patch file to /usr/ports/editors/eclipse

     -  Execute: patch -i patch-eclipse_powerpc64

     -  Execute: patch -i patch-Makefile

     -  Run make

The patch forces the use of powerpc64 vice ppc64 to avoid issues and conflicts
with using Linux PPC64 files provided as part of the port distfile.

Recommend upgrading to the most recent versions of webkit-gtk2 or webkitgtk3,
if building the GTK3 option.


Build environment:

FreeBSD 10.2 Stable PowerPC64
GCC Versio 5.4.0
OpenJDK8 1.8.0_102-b14, 64-bit Server VM

The resulting builds (Platform or SDK) runs with full functionality. (Tested on
a PowerMac G5 Quad "Late 2005" and PowerMac G5 Dual 2.7GHz)
