[IronPython] difference in compiling ipy in 3.5 vs. .NET 4.0?

[Ken MacDonald]

Hi Dino,
Thanks for the info / pointers on VS integration. I looked at the schedule
in the spec, and it appears that "build to .exe" support is not going to be
integrated for some time, whenever "P2" is; is there a schedule for that?

I got that stuff installed, and was able to get a very simple app (hello,
world-ish) up and running in VS/IronPython, but I'm still unable to do a
build-out from VS and get a real .exe out of the deal, which was what I was
hoping to be able to do with the VS integration. We are sort of at a
crossroads here where we want to see if we can stay w/IP as our dev
platform, or if we need to port the whole beast to C#, which seems like a
large pain.
