Cygwin paths must always be with slashes instead of backslashes. When I add a workspace-relative path to includes list in project properties, it appears in a "mixed" mode that the cygwin toolchain does not interpret:
"C:\workspace/project/src". There is a workaround to add the absolute path to the include list, but then the project will become broken if moved.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new C++ project with Cygwin toolchain
2. Open Properties->C/C++ General->Paths and Symbols->Includes
3. Add a path with "Is workspace path" checked
4. Use an #include "something" that is in this include path
5. Build the project and get the bad makefile
