Hi Ravi,
I tried to repro this with a multi project solution with several references, but I couldn't. In the cases where you get the build errors, does the project with the
build errors always reference a project that has been changed? It may be that the work around is to change the order of when the projects in the solution
are compiled (but I'm just guessing).
