There has been several discussions in various bug reports about migrating
from the Eclipse-LazyStart header to the new Bundle-ActivationPolicy header
specified in the OSGi R4.1 specification.  With the latest I-Builds PDE is
now flagging the old Eclipse-LazyStart header as deprecated and with this
weeks I-Build PDE is offering two quickfix options to migrate to the
Bundle-ActivationPolicy:

1) Convert the deprecated 'Eclipse-LazyStart' to 'Bundle-ActivationPolicy'
2) Add 'Bundle-ActivationPolicy' header

The Equinox team is recommending that developers use option 2 when
migrating to the new header.  This will ensure that bundles will continue
to work on older Eclipse platforms where the Bundle-ActivationPolicy header
is not recognized.  It will also allow the bundle to work on other OSGi R4
Framework implementations which probably do not recognize the
Eclipse-LazyStart header.
