I propose to embed Lua and use Lua table instead of JSON. Config could look like

toolchain {
    target = "arm-none-linux-gnueabi",
    c_include_dirs = { "/gcc/path", "/libc/path" },
    cxx_include_root = "/some/other/path",
    as = "/path/to/as",
    ld = "/path/to/ld"
}

toolchain { 
-- next toolchain definition
..
}

It would also bring scripting capabilities.
