Been there, done that, ditched VS.NET as a build tool. IMNSHO, this is a
SHOW STOPPER bug in VS that should be fixed asap [1]. What we ended up doing
was just using VS.NET strictly for the code editor and designers (which are
pretty good), and use other tools (makefiles and NAnt) for the actual
builds.

Until the VC# project model is completely revamped to deal with projects of
at least medium complexity, it's build system is pretty much useless except
for the smallest projects.

P.S. If you think you're having problems with 14 projects in a solution, try
working on one with 32....

[1] And yes, it _does_ happen with separate build directories for each
project, too.
