If the -clean doesn't work you might try setting a breakpoint in the
following method:

org.eclipse.cdt.managedbuilder.ui/CProjectPlatformPage.populateTypes()

It first gets all defined project types (which should include yours),
then filters out the ones not matching architecture/os, perhaps yours
is filtered out in that stage.
