There's also Phantom, a new Boo build system, also DSL-based: http://github.com/JeremySkinner/Phantom
About xbuild, I had problems last time I wanted to use it (2 months ago, for GitSharp), it was kind of unreliable. In the end I went with nant. Granted, this was before the 2.6 release and I haven't used it ever since, it seems to have improved lately. Abut msbuild 2010 new features, we wouldn't be able to use them until xbuild caught up with it. IronRuby + irake is another possibility. Actually Krzysztof asked about this a couple of months ago ( http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1443792/bin-deploy-rake-and-ironruby ), Bracket seems to simplify xcopy deployment of IronRuby.
