Gert,
I've got the same problem. (Please see the caveats at the end of this.)
I've got a project that is composed of a bunch of DLL that launch reports.
In each project we have a report launcher that is just a small exe that
exercises the dll.
I have set the solution task to exclude the launcher project
<target name="compileHouseBill-debug" if="${debug}"
depends="compileDocumentProducer-debug">
<property name="source-location" value="${build-base}\Document House Bill of
Lading"/>
<copy file="${comProxy-location}\B89001lAX.dll" todir="${final-target}"/>
<copy file="${comProxy-location}\B89001lCM.dll" todir="${final-target}"/>
<solution configuration="debug" solutionfile="${source-location}\Document
House Bill of Lading.sln" outputdir="${debug-location}">
<excludeprojects>
<!--<include
name="${source-location}\launch_tool\launch_tool.csprojj"/>-->
<exclude name="launch_tool.csprojj"/>
</excludeprojects>
<projects>
<include name="House Bill of Lading Document.vbproj"/>
</projects>
<assemblyfolders>
<include name="${final-target}"/>
</assemblyfolders>
</solution>
<copy file="${debug-location}\House Bill of Lading Document.dll"
todir="${final-target}"/>
<copy file="${debug-location}\Interop.B89001lTypelib.dll"
todir="${final-target}"/>
</target>
(Wow - That's a mess)
Anyway, the launch_tool.csprojj gets built no matter what I do, and as you can
see by my commented out line, I tried a few different combinations.
The upshot is that it's not a big deal in this case, I build to a build area,
and then copy to my final target.
I don't think this bug should hold up the release .85 release, it's a known
issue. (again, my opinion on the severity of the bug and probably doesn't
reflect the opinion of the project owner)

Caveats:
1) I am using a May 25th build combined with (I think) a raw .84 build of nant
contrib.
It's working on my primary machine which is a
Pentium 4, 2.79 GHz, 1.00 GB of RAM, running XP-Pro, Service Pack 1
The problem is, I'm not really sure how I got it working.
2) I'm in the process of trying to get a more current build of nant and
nant-contrib to work, but so far my attempts to get NAnt and NAnt-Contrib
working on my test machine have been abject failures. Mind you, I'm hampered
by crappy machines (No I mean *REALLY* crappy machines) running Win2k as a test
machine.
3) My time window for testing is limited, I'm really not supposed to be
spending much time on this. (Read as: "Don't get caught, but if you can make
it work, congradulations.)
