Right, and this is something that is bothering me. We provide an API
that is no tied to any build mechanisms so you can add/remove new include paths
macros etc and other information. The MBS never implemented the extension.
It is to late for the CDT-3.0 but it something I would like to tackle at one
point, there are too much loose ends and basically no integration of the MBS to
the rest of CDT, even the UI is different and confusing to the users when
switching to different builders.

Agreed. But the other way should have work as well doing thing this
way make you dependent on all of the internals of one builder.
IMO, doing this:
CoreModel.setNewPathEntries(...);
Should work and hide the kitchen work.
