Just wondering, what do you see when you press "what's already installed", or whatever it's called (I forget, and I don't have my installation right here), in the "Add software" dialog within Eclipse.
I've got it to work, now. Not sure what exactly did the trick, but the 
following helped:

# yum install eclipse-\*
# yum remove eclipse-nls htmlparser

After this, various C++ components and *a lot* of other pieces, too, 
were added to the Installed Software list. I very much doubt that the 
installation actually added all the modules. Instead I suspect that in 
the past, there was some kind of problem that caused the system to stop 
loading components that were actually installed at a certain stage - and 
that this issue was resolved by the install command. If you know what I 
mean...
