Eclipse Mountain Lion scrollbar expanding [closed]

I'm having an issue with mountain lion, which is decreasing my productivity a LOT.

When using cmd+mouse click (I assume ctrl+mouse click) on a method/class/whatever I get the Open declaration/implementation etc popup. The problem is that the scrollbar lies over the bottom most item and since it's expanding on mouse over there's no way to select that item.

Is there any workaround for this? Or a way to make the popup bigger? Or select the using the keyboard?

Thanks to a friend I found a solution! If you change scrollbar visibility to always (System Preferences - General) they aren't appearing at all in the popups!

While switching to "Show scroll bars: Always" is one alternative, I think it would be better to get this resolved in Eclipse, thus I filed a bug:

Check this screencast I made to show the relation between the Mountain Lion Preferences and how it effects Eclipse.

For me it's only the When Scrolling option that creates a problem. With either of the remaining settings, things are peachy :
