I'm creating a plugin that requires SWT, and we are developing this
plugin in a team environment on Linux, OS X, and Windoze. When I
specify SWT at a required plugin, the system adds a OS specific entry to
the .classpath file. This breaks our other development environments
when whe comit and update at the project level. Is there a way to set
up the project such that we can develop on multiple platforms and not
have to manually change the classpath to SWT?

In addition to import the SWT plugin as a project, you should use the
PDE update class path function. That will automatically maintain your
classpath. You shouldn't be updating the classpath by hand for
developing plugins.
Note: If you do use the update classpath, make sure you have your
build.properties set up correctly or update classpath will cause strange
things to happen.
Hint: The new PDE Required plugins container is very useful. Go to
Window->Preferences->Plugin Development->JAva BuildPath Control and
select the "Use classpath container for dependent plugins" checkbox.
