The GeoMASON web site already has a jar file pre-built:
http://www.cs.gmu.edu/~eclab/projects/mason/extensions/geomason/

Please note, that jar file does not have a few bug fixes that are in the
bleeding edge code in the MASON repository, but you might be OK if you
don't happen to code up something that triggers one.

However, there is no reason why you shouldn't be able to create an Eclipse
project for GeoMASON checked out from the SVN repository.  I'm not an
Eclipse user -- I use Netbeans, instead -- but I imagine the process for
creating a project from pre-existing sources in Eclipse should be simple
regardless the underlying OS.  This may be a good place to start:
