I had the same issue. I was able to fix it, and I believe what did it is running the SDK manager from the command line ($ADK_HOME/tools/android). I removed and re-installed the support libraries (in a section way down near the bottom)
The problem seems to have something to do with the library being downloaded to the wrong place, when the manager is run from eclipse. In my case it is a bug that the template require the support library at all... G.
