VS2003's devenv.com can take a solution on the command-line, and build it:

 devenv DQSDTools.sln /rebuild "Release MinDependency"

Haven't tested that, but it should work. Check devenv /? for more details.

Yeah, me too, but...

... no, they don't. The C++ compiler isn't included in the .NET SDK, but
it's available as a separate free download at:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/visualc/vctoolkit2003/

However, that doesn't include the Platform SDK, nor the ATL library, which
is only shipped with the commercial versions of the product. So I think
we're short on luck trying to move to free tools.
