No I don't think its very easy, and I don't think its enough to locate the
commandline tools as I encoutered this issue too when setting up Draco.NET
on my system... when using Draco.NET, NAnt is executed from a Windows
service, and as such, I had to add a whole bunch of directories to the
system PATH and I also had to create a few new system environment variables
for the libs and includes before the NAnt Visual C++ tests actually worked
... just adding the necessary directories to the PATH resulted in other
errors ...

However, I agree that we should somehow find a solution for this problem ...
