For historical reasons we are using the devenv command line (rather than the built in VBP step) to build on a dual core system. We had trouble trying to get VCBuild working when we first installed VS 2005 and haven't retried since applying the service pack. I'm hazy on the details, but we have set things up for a single processor compile to avoid early problems we had. At some point soon we'll revisit the 2005 build process and see if we can get it to work correctly using multiple cores.

With VS 2003 we had occasional link errors that caused trouble with our builds. Retrying the compile if a link error was detected fixed the problem.

Update: I should have noted that none of the issues are VBP related - command line builds showed the same problems.
