crashes following upgrade to debian stretch [message #1766477]

Following an upgrade from jessie to stretch, when I select a menu function that opens a new window (e.g., File | Properties) eclipse crashes and the following appears on the terminal:

** (Eclipse:6110): WARNING **: Invalid borders specified for theme pixmap:
/usr/share/themes/Breeze/gtk-2.0/../assets/line-h.png,
borders don't fit within the image
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Obviously, this makes eclipse completely unusable :-(

Prior to the upgrade, eclipse worked perfectly.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Changing the GTK theme from Breeze to Adwaita has helped somewhat.

Eclipse now at least opens windows OK, but if I try to resize them it still crashes.

So, usable, but not something one would want to be forced to live with for long.

Still hoping that someone can suggest a real fix. (I note that I don't use GNOME, and as
far as I know Eclipse is the only software on the box that cares about GTK Themes. So I
don't know if other GTK programs would be equally affected.)

FWIW, this is a completely vanilla installation of the recently-released version of Debian
stable, running on a fairly old 32-bit machine. The problem did not exist on the prior two
versions of Debian stable (wheezy and jessie).
