New description:

 Class buildbot.steps.vstudio.VC10 can't handle config names with a pipe
 (|) in it, e.g. {{{"Release|Win32"}}}.

 A workaround is to use buildbpt.steps.shell.ShellCommand and escape the
 pipe with a {{{^}}}, e.g.:

 {{{
 ShellCommand(command=['devenv.com', 'Solution.sln', '/Build',
 'Release^|Win32'])
 }}}


 The following would *not* work, because the ^ is missing:

 {{{
 ShellCommand(command=['devenv.com', 'Solution.sln', '/Build',
 'Release|Win32'])
 }}}


 Maybe this workaround can be used to fix this bug. One simple solution
 would be to search for pipes {{{|}}} and replace them with {{{^|}}}.
