[Opensim-users] OpenSimulator development code now builds using .NET 4.0

[Justin Clark-Casey]

Hi Austin.  Yes, there was an error with the updated runprebuild.bat where it worked with Windows Vista and earlier but 
failed with Windows 7 and later.  I have hopefully now fixed this in commit 0f16612.  This has the side effect for now 
of making it impossible/hard to run this batch script in cygwin, which I may try to address at a later date for the 1 or 
2 people using cygwin with OpenSim (temporary workaround is to run this under a Windows command prompt instead).

Regarding the license key, it's not a problem to get, just a bit of bureaucracy - I use VS C# 2010 Express myself.
