Happens almost with every build I try.
did you also see the build hang?

Yup, that was really troubling. But I've tested the other places where
we use the tr1:regex and those seem to work (it seems only the
regex_match() function broke, not the others).

I'll keep the beta around for a while. After all, it has a nice profiler
I like to use for some functions/features in TSVN.

I've also noticed that VS2010 creates a lot of files and directories in
places where it really shouldn't. I've checked all paths in the project
settings and all built/generated files should either go to /obj or /bin,
but after a build (or even after just opening a project!) I get tons of
files in src/obj, /src/TortoiseProc, ...
Very annoying!

Another problem I have is with the focus. I'm used to have the focus in
the editor window. But after stopping a debug run, the focus is on the
'find' combobox for some strange reason, even if it was on the editor
before.

I could go on with issues and annoying behavior I found in just the one
day I've been playing around with it, but this is not the place to do that.

And I miss my tomato plugin :)

One good thing though: the crt dlls don't have a manifest anymore! Sure,
that gets us back to the good old "dll hell", but at least we won't have
problems with manifests anymore.
