I tested the second way (overriding getTooltip) and it seems 
to work but:

1. There's no easy way to set the tooltip for the header group 
(it would be nice to have a Group.setToolTip method).
2. In the output I get a lot of ugly lines like:
getToolTipText300, 0
getToolTipText75, 264
getToolTipText386, 195
getToolTipText388, 216
getToolTipText77, 266
getToolTipText396, 8
getToolTipText390, 218
getToolTipText9, 336
getToolTipText422, 345
getToolTipText75, 287
getToolTipText388, 153

Followed by a stack overflow exception.

Fix available in CVS.

There are also two samples that show the two common ways 
to activate tool tips:

1.add a MouseMotionListener to the header

2. Subclass the header JXTableHeader and overwrite the 
method getToolTipText(e)
