We have this problem. Our workaround has been to delete gwt- servlet.jar from the svn repository, then add it to svn:ignore on the WEB-INF/lib folder. Eclipse then re-adds the jar when it launches, but that's ok because it's ignored w.r.t. svn.
We have a separate production build system using maven, which pulls the gwt-servlet.jar out of the appropriate maven repository at build time.
