I read in an Eclipse status update that it would be out in October
(Eclipse uses Lucene for its Help component and suffers from the
highly publicised bug). Not sure if that is the official position
though. Meanwhile you can find a "non-broken" Java 7 build in the
following link (it has been confirmed by a Lucene committer that it
fixes the problem[1]):

http://jdk7.java.net/download.html

Best,
