Is there a reason that the PDB files are not generated in the same folder and with the same naming scheme as the corresponding DLLs?  Out of the box, for example, one DLL is
 
     ../../bin/vc90/ToolkitPro1201vc90.dll
 
while the PDB is
 
     .\Release/vc90/ToolkitPro1201.pdb
 
Note the folders are different, and the DLL encodes the compiler version (eg vc90) into the filename while the PDB does not.  This causes me some mild heartburn each time I roll out a new version of Codejock to my team, since it doesn't play well with some custom crashlog debugging tools we use, which assume that the files live together.  I end up modifying the project files over & over.
