I was running Eclipse 3.1.2, and I installed Eclipse 3.2 in a separate
directory.

I made a copy of the workspace I was using with 3.1.2, and I opened that
workspace in 3.2. In the project in that workspace, I was referencing a
classpath variable that wasn't set when I opened up 3.2, so it complained
"Unbound classpath variable: HOME/.maven/repository/...' in project ...".
The variable was HOME, and I was using it to reference
"HOME/.maven/repository". I decided to change all of them to
"MAVEN_REPO", but after doing a handful of them, I decided to exit
Eclipse and edit the .classpath file manually with another text editor. I
changed all the references, then restarted Eclipse 3.2.

Unfortunately, it still complains about the problem, even though those
references don't exist anymore. It won't let me build the project because
of this.

Never mind. I gave up on a simple solution to this. I exited Eclipse,
edited the .classpath file, changing all the variable references to what
they were set to before, restarted Eclipse, and manually went through the
project properties, editing each reference (40 or so) to change it what it
needed to be. That finally cleared the errors.
