I really do not know why eclipse did not transform the SVN-checked-out Lucene+Solr into a Java-Development perspective.
However: Ant works. So the problem wasn't Ant. If you have the same issue, go to your .projects file and look for the natures-tag. Add there the the following lines: <nature>org.eclipse.jdt.core.javanature</nature> <nature>org.eclipse.wst.common.project.facet.core.nature</nature> Now Lucene and Solr should be normal java-perspective projects. Be sure to refresh after you changed the configuration. Perhaps a restart could be neccessary, depending on your Eclipse-version.
