- Fixed bug that caused command line errors in MSVC.NET builds because of a quoted folder path ending with a single backslash character.
- Renamed projects are now supported in MSVC.NET builds.

- Intermediate and Output folder paths can now be specified using all environment variables.
- Fixed bug with header files referenced in .RC files sometimes not being taken into account in dependency evaluation.
