EXTRA RELEVANT SYSTEM CONFIGURATION :
Eclipse Luna SR2
eclipse.buildId=4.4.2.M20150204-1700

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
When I launch Eclipse Luna with java 8u152 via the command line (Terminal app), the application hangs and I cannot proceed. I have to kill the app using Force Quit / CTRL + C

Additional notes:
- I verified that Eclipse Luna (eclipse.buildId=4.4.2.M20150204-1700) works with java 8u152 in Windows 7x64
- I ran YourKit Java Profiler 2017.02 with both Luna+8u152 and Luna+8u151 so i could compare the results of the two. It didn't provide me any insights; memory and CPU usage was identical between the two and no deadlocks were reported

REGRESSION. Last worked in version 8u151
