There are a couple of options here. I built from the command line, so I copied tools.ini to tools.bat, took out the comments, and put 'set ' at the beginning of each line. Then I ran the batch file, and built from the command line with nmake.
There are other options as well, including setting the environment variables within Windows, or passing the parameters on the nmake command line. I haven't tried those options.
