This paper shows that for the heterotic string theory in the presence of arbitrary background gauge, gravitational and antisymmetric tensor fields, truncated by a general coordinate dependent compactification a la Scherk-Schwarz, the requirement of 2D conformal invariance is as restrictive as to inhibit supersymmetry breaking with vanishing cosmological constant.
