Question BUG? VS.NET Step (set base address + build events with quotes)

I am using the VS.NET step to build a solution that contains a bunch of C# projects.

Each of those projects contains a post build event that include quotes. When I select the "Set the base address to random value if not set" option, the build event text get's screwed up if it includes quotation marks.

The build event looks like this before VBP pre-processing:
"$(SolutionDir)DeployDebug.bat" "$(TargetDir)" "$(TargetName)" $(TargetExt)

After VBP's pre-processing it looks like this:
"$(SolutionDir)DeployDebug.bat" "$(TargetDir)" "$(TargetName)" $(TargetExt)

It looks like some XML character escaping is happening here.

We need those quotes becuase the $(*) variable may be paths with spaces.

Is this a known issue and is there a work-around?
