Can you document this too? (I'm so sick of using windows cmd shell
I can't begin to tell you...)

As of now, you cannot build from a Cygwin or other alternative
shell.
Salikh replied:
This is not exactly the case.
- DRLVM has provisions in 'build.bat'
to set up environment using Visual Studio environment file
'vsvars32.bat' (and friends).
- if Visual Studio configured system environment during
installation, then both DRLVM and Classlib
can be built from any place.
Geir interjected:
Have you built classlib successfully with cygwin?
Yes. I use Cygwin all the time, and always build classlib from
cygwin shell.
However, it required a couple of things to configure:
1) during Visual Studio installation, tick "configure system
environment" checkbox (or something similar)
2) rm /bin/link -- to make sure the 'link' command unambiguously
resolves to Microsoft linker
(Cygwin's /bin/link is useless program, similar to /bin/ln)
I have also heard from some colleagues, that they were able to
configure Cygwin to pick up
visual studio environment from vsvars32.bat during bash startup,
but do not know the exact details.
The only way to configure Visual Studio environment at runtime I
know is captured in DRLVM's build.bat.
