Is there one distribution providing support for up to date Eclipse installations?
There are various reasons why not.
Installing binaries just works. Get Eclipse binaries form eclipse.org/downloads
install this wrapper then run Eclipse like this:
nix-run-eclipse $PATH_TO_ECLIPSE/eclipse/eclipse
and be happy. Everything works including update sites.
