ah... OK. I missed that since I had the build already working, and directly
went to the "Importing the project into Eclipse" section :)

OK, now this resolves fine for the "support" bits, e.g:

import android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity;   <==== GOOD NOW :)

Let me file a JIRA to include the "Support Lib" on the Eclipse guide.

but still, this does not resovle:

 import android.app.Fragment;

Hrm "Google APIs [Android 2.3.3]" does not help to resolve "Fragment" or
"GoogleCloudMessaging" .

For fun, I changed to "Google APIs [Android 4.2.2]". That resolved almost
all issues, _except
"import com.google.android.gms.gcm.GoogleCloudMessaging;". That guy is
still a problem   :-)
