eclipse IDE can't understand posix-style paths [message #808016]

I'm using eclipse Indigo for windows on windows 7 32-bit and a toolchain based on ARM cross compile toolchain which has the version of glibc-2.9 gcc-4.3.4. It'd be more suited to use posix-style paths for the toolchain I use as stated in cygwin site and stated by warnings of toolchain itself when building a project. Now if I add a posix-style path like "/cygwin/c/project/sdk" that is equivalent to "c:\project\sdk" windows-native-style path; to additional header search paths in "project settings->C/C++ build->Settings->Tool Settings->GCC C Compiler->Includes" section, it'll be automatically added to "project settings->C/C++ General->Paths and Symbols->Includes" section, the section where eclipse IDE looks into to know where header files are located. Now the issue is toolchain will be ok for building the project but the IDE itself can't understand posix-style paths so it won't be able to locate headers in those paths. Is there anyway to make IDE recognize the posix-style paths?
