Currently on the timo/maven branch of eclipse-poky-contrib is a target definition (target platform) for linux x86_64. Now that other architectures are going to be supported, it's necessary to create a target platform definition for x86_64 (with...e.g. swt fragments for x86_64). This is so that x86_64 development and testing can be done easily in that environment.
Eclipse got dropped from project support.
