The issue seems to be that in Ganymede the Problems view entries are
of type 'MarkerEntry', and the 'Open external location' is an object
contribution to 'org.eclipse.core.resources.IMarker' which doesn't match
directly. The trick seems to be to set the adaptable attribute to true
as MarkerEntry is adaptable to IMarker. Assigned:
