Greetings Farid.

I checked the provided test case again on my local installation, and 
discovered that it does not replicate the issue.

After further digging, I have found that the problem seems to have been 
the use of the %G or %H variable in a for loop prior to invoking devenv. 
  This was worked around by using the SETLOCAL/ENDLOCAL directives.

As batch scripts alter their environment unless the SETLOCAL command is 
used, I had been reducing my test case in an environment where these 
variables were undesirably set.
