We have a package that ends with exception e.g.

package a.b.c.exception;

Our code base had no issues up till eclipse 3.3, however when we shifted to eclipse 3.4, it started giving errors related to this package:

"The package a.b.c.exception collides with a type"

When I refactor the package name to a.b.c.exceptions, there are no issues. Is this due to a bug in eclipse 3.4 or is there some setting to rectify this behavior?
