I'd like to set up a command-line build environment with ps. Currently
I have to do a 'call "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC
\vcvarsall.bat"' as part of that. Is there a way to do that and cause
the set commands there to affect env: in ps?

Take a look at this blog post:

Also the PSCX snapin will automatically register the appropriate VS 2005 env
vars if you have VS 2005 installed:
