Summary: Fails when target net-3.5 (No NET SDK 3.5 and No VS)

Initial Comment:
Running on Windows Server 2003. Visual Studio 2008 and .Net 3.5 SDK are not installed. The .Net 3.5 Framework is installed. Previously running .85 targeting .Net 2.0 without problems. Installed .86 Beta 1 and got the following error:

-----------------
nant -t:net-3.5
NAnt 0.86 (Build 0.86.2898.0; beta1; 12/8/2007)

BUILD FAILED

Failed to initialize the 'Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0' (net-2.0) target framework.

    Property evaluation failed.
Expression: ${path::combine(sdkInstallRoot, 'bin')}
                            ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

        Property 'sdkInstallRoot' has not been set.

For more information regarding the cause of the build failure, run the build again in debug mode.

Try 'nant -help' for more information
-----------------

I ended up removing the sdkDirectory attribute from the net-2.0 and net-3.5 framework elements in the NAnt.exe.config file:

sdkdirectory="${path::combine(sdkInstallRoot, 'bin')}"

We don't use the sdk in our build so this seems to be working OK for us. If there is a better solution, please let me know.

Thanks
