Ok - if any of the following sounds harsh, it's not meant to be, and it 
should not be taken as critical of anyone - it's written this way so 
that it will be as clear and definitive as I can be:

  * Look at what we do in the 'Release' configuration.
    We want open source builds to be as close to that as we can possibly
    make them (because it maximizes the chances we can use contributions
    easily).
  * We do not care about and will not accept changes to support building
    with more than one version of Visual Studio.
    If a case can be made that there is a better choice than the
    Community Edition, feel free to make it but pending that case being
    made that's the choice.
  * How TPVs that are not following our build system evolution and have
    not been for some time are doing things is not of interest.

Is there any more clarity needed?

I and my team have been somewhat disconnected lately doing our 
not-really-sekrit planning sessions, but they're done (I'm writing this 
on the plane home); we'll try to get re-engaged on the issues of getting 
any required changes made. We appreciate your patience.
