Similar reports https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-5552 and https://teamcity-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/206982415-Error-when-inserting-comma-in-build-configuration-name-MSBuild-
Here is my output:

I also have same issue with Xamarin.iOS (same as vsts-tasks team had).
My question is about single quote escaping - is that a universal mechanism that works across all platforms MSBuild supports (Windows, OS X, Unix)? If so, I can go ahead and apply that to the build system we use (F# Fake).
Thank you. P.S. It is so great to have MSBuild repo on github, you can't believe! :) 👍
