There is a known bug on this I think: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=253735

This is taken care of by the toolchain selection. Unfortunately there are issues with selecting the right toolchain currently (deadlock issues we previously discussed), so unfortunately this is a bit of a hole in functionality right now.
What you can do is export/import your project settings once you get it all setup right. Then at least you only have to really do it once. Check the export wizard.

We have a remote scanner discovery profile, but CDT has a serious problem where you can't change the profile from what the toolchain already specified. You change it and hit OK, but it doesn't take effect. This means our profile can never be used, and the ones that are supplied by all the toolchains don't work in a remote setup :-(
