I've encountered one problem with Platform SDK toolset. It seems PSDK 
setup script 'SetEnv.cmd' tries to detect MS Visual Studio installation 
and fails if nothing was found. When two VS installations are installed 
only the latest will be detected and used.

So the two steps initialization that I tried to implement will not work 
correctly:

actions compile.c bind RSP
{
...\vcvars32.bat
...\setenv.cmd
cl ...
}

The only solution that I see now is manually set PATH, INCLUDE and LIB 
variables (or equivalents) instead of calling 'SetEnv.cmd'. Any other 
ideas?
