Getting rid of 1> in MSVC 2005 Output Window

When using an external tool to build (e.g NMAKE), the output window now
prepends '1>' in each line. Also, the errors and warnings are not
appearing on the task list anymore (as opposed to MSVC 2003).

How do I get rid of this and get the errors back in the task list?

The 1> indicates that the line was produced by build process 1. The VC2005
build system will build independent projects in parallel using multiple
processes. There's no way to turn off the process indicator, as far as I
know.

I can't help you with the other issue - I know in past versions the "task
list" used an extremely simple filter to identify "errors" and "warnings" in
the output (it simply looked for the word "error" or the word "warning", so
a line that read "0 errors occurred" would be added to the task list as an
error...). Apparently the way the task list identifies errors in the output
has been changed.

at Tools, Options, Projects and Solutions, Build and Run
there is an options "maximum number of parallel project builds". When this
is set to one, the indicator goes away.
