setting VCCLCompilerTool.TreatWChar_tAsBuiltInType property on MSBuild command line

I need to build Visual Studio 2010 projects with wchar_t not being native type. The IDE setting should be equal to the value of VCCLCompilerTool.TreatWChar_tAsBuiltInType property. However trying to set it using /p:VCCLCompilerTool.TreatWChar_tAsBuiltInType=false on MSBuild command seems to fail. Is there any other way how I could achieve this from the MSBuild command line?

You have to set environment variable CL to /Zc:wchar_t-

Example batch file to compile with forced /Zc:wchar_t-:

set CL=/Zc:wchar_t-

%windir\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\msbuild.exe projectName.vcxproj /t:Rebuild
