Thanks for trying out the VMR and affirming the simplification it provides. We are working towards building without prebuilts but it can be a slow process. I have noted the tracking issues below for the repos you provided patches for.

I have been experimenting with building .NET 8 using the much easier to use VMR. I have previously built .NET 8 Preview 3 using the bootstrap process, and now attempt to build .NET 8 Preview 4 using Preview 3 rather than the bootstrap downloads. In this case, I do not have .NET 7 available due to the more difficult build process, and I only have the prebuilts which were generated during the Preview 3 build. In order to actually build, I had to make some changes to the source downloaded from the VMR, changing nuget-client and fsharp to target net8.0 rather than net7.0, and to remove some prebuilt references in vstest. I am providing the patches I applied in order to be able to build Preview 4. I have not extensively tested to see if everything actually runs as it is supposed to; rather, these patches were created simply to get the build process to succeed.
nuget-client-use-net8.0.patch
fsharp-use-net8.0.patch
vstest-remove-prebuilts.patch
