I can reproduce the problem myself. The problem will happen if any
subdirectory name in the path to the root of the SSCLI tree begins with
the letter 'u' - in your case, "c:\users\" is the problem. No other
letter triggers this.
For a quick workaround, try this from a fresh command prompt:
subst x: c:\users
cd /d x:\yuan\proj\rotor\sscli
env.bat
buildall -c
The underlying problem is that the path to your sscli tree is passed on
the C++ compiler's command-line as part of a macro define.
"-DASSEMBLY_KEY_FILE=C:\\users\\yuan\\proj\\sscli\\clr\\bin\\finalassemb
lykey.snk" and the compiler is unhappy with the "\\u" part.
Does anyone know why "\\u" is special in the C++ preprocessor? I tried
all 25 other letters and they don't cause the error.

Can you check two things?
1) Check that your new machine has a working Perl installation: the
SSCLI build process depends on it.
2) Open c:\users\yuan\proj\rotor\sscli\clr\builddf.log and search for
"assemblyattributes.cspp". Hopefully, there will be an error message
nearby that will help identify what went wrong.
Thanks,
Barry

Subject: [DOTNET-ROTOR] Build problem (again)
I had no problem compiling sscli until I got my current machine. It is
an
HP workstation xw8000 running Windows XP. Below is the error message.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
