Unfortunately it's still broken for me:

intel-win.link 
..\..\..\bin.v2\libs\config\test\config_info.test\intel-win-9\deb
ug\threading-multi\config_info.exe
xilink: executing 'link'

        )

Perversely if I paste the link command directly into the console then it 
*does* link correctly.

Any ideas on how we might go about tracking this down?

Many thanks!
