I'm not certain about any of the attributes above.  I used the eclipse-cpp-galileo-win32.zip package, and I *think* this is a CDT problem.

eclipse IDE build id 20090619-0625
CDT version 6.0.0.200906161748

I've linked a directory as follows:
-go to project properties, C/C++ General, Paths and Symbols, select the Source Location tab.
-click "Link Folder"
-name it ("link-test")
-check the "Link to folder in the file system" box, browse to a directory, and hit OK ("C:\test")

as of right now, there are no filters in place and all the files show up.

-go back to the same screen, and edit the filter under your link.  I'd give specific directions here, but I don't think I need to: anything you do here won't work.  You can use either the "Add" or "Add Multiple" button.  You can specify files or use wildcards.  One interesting behavior is that while matching files never get excluded, they do get reordered.

The linked directory is neither a parent nor a child of the eclipse workspace or project directories.
