Thanks.
That was really bugging me, having a bunch of "Invalid project path: Include path not found" messages in the problems list.

I am currently useing Eclipse 3.3.1.1 with CDT 4.0.1.
In my configuration, the message "Invalid project path: Include path not found" was due to a bug in Eclipse: I had upgraded my gcc, and a bug in Eclipse left old paths in some configuration files. The work around for the bug fix helped me out. It can be found here: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=206372
Good luck
