I did some exploration in this field and found this:
Visual Studio use HintPath to find reference assemblies. If not found it
uses all paths listed under registry key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\7.1\AssemblyFolders
Maybe we should implement similar mechanism? Use HintPath first and then
some path list which could defaults to this regisry read. And be overrided
(extended?) by e.g.
<solution _verbose="true" configuration="Release"
output="${build.dir}">
<projects>
<includes name="**/*.csproj"/>
</projects>
<assembly-folders>
<includes name="c:\temp\build\dll"/>
</assembly-folders>
</solution>
