I think, but am not certain, that individual users can install their own
upgrades to Eclipse. These will be personal, and installed into their own home
area, overriding the default system version. For a system-wide upgrade you do
need to be root (or whichever user installed IDL/Eclipse, but I think it
insists on root).
