Yes, it's for automation.   The shell function build_sln is part of our new
third party lib build system which we're starting to document here:
http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Autobuild and here:
http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Autobuild_How_To

You're a bit ahead of the curve, and we haven't quite kicked all of this off
with great fanfare just yet.  But thanks for diving in fearlessly :)

If you want to run the build, in theory you should just need to check out
our autobuild repository <http://bitbucket.org/lindenlab/autobuild>, put its
bin directory in your PATH, and run 'autobuild install && autobuild build &&
autobuild package'

Anyways, in addition to that, a simple substitute definition for the
function is as follows:
    build_sln() {
        local solution=$1
        local config=$2
        local proj=$3

        if [ -z "$proj" ] ; then
            devenv.com "$(cygpath -m "$solution")" /build "$config"
        else
            devenv.com "$(cygpath -m "$solution")" /build "$config" /project
"$proj"
        fi
    }
