Ever heard a developer say "it can't be done?" It is one of my biggest pet peeves. The truth is, it can be done. If you approach a problem pragmatically and put enough effort into it, understanding the root issues, and not settling for sub-par, you can achieve anything. Why not? Nobody said it would be easy. I just said Anything's Possible.

MSBuild 4.0 has all sorts of features for targeting different .NET Framework versions. The idea is that you can use MSBuild 4.0 to build all your legacy (pre-4.0) project types, as well as new projects that just target a downlevel version of the .NET Framework. In addition, you can mix and match the target framework versions for different projects under a single invocation of MSBuild.exe. Unfortunately, in Beta 2, we've had reports of a problem with building unit test projects that contain the special generated accessor assemblies, otherwise known as "test references". If you have a VS 2008 unit test project with test references, you may find that MSBuild 4.0 gives you an error like:
Caught a BadImageFormatException saying "Could not load file or assembly 'C:\Build\Project\Sources\ProjectName\ProjectName.UnitTests\obj\Debug\ProjectName_Accessor.dll' or one of its dependencies. This assembly is built by a runtime newer than the currently loaded runtime and cannot be loaded.".
