Reproduce:
==========
I create a "Standard Make C Project", give it some name, hit "Next",
then change the settings in the "Error Parsers" tab, and hit finish.

Now I open the "properties" of the new project, and inspect the "Error Parsers"
tab under "C/C++ Make Project". I observe that the settings are not those
I have entered, but those that had been offered as default values.

Now I open the "preferences" in the "Window" menu, and inspect the default
settings for a "New Make Project". Here i see the settings that i have entered.



Probable reason:
================
in "ErrorParserBlock.java" (package org.eclipse.cdt.make.internal.ui) I found the following method:

public void saveErrorParsers(IProject project, String[] parserIDs) throws CoreException {
  if (getContainer().getProject() != null && fBuildInfo == null) {
    try {
      fBuildInfo = MakeCorePlugin.createBuildInfo(getContainer().getProject(), MakeBuilder.BUILDER_ID);
    } catch (CoreException e) {
    }
  } 
  if (fBuildInfo != null) {
   fBuildInfo.setErrorParsers(parserIDs);
  }
}


When I enter this method while creating a new C project, the field "fBuildInfo" points to the "default settings". It should be changed to point to my actual project, which would be done by the try-block, but the if-statement prevents that. 


Proposed Solution
=================

Change
  if (getContainer().getProject() != null && fBuildInfo == null) {
to
  if (getContainer().getProject() != null) {
