looking for release dll in debug compile

Ever since I installed VS2008 SP1 I get errors like the one below
where it's looking in the release folder for a project reference
during a debug compile. If I rebuild all it works just fine. I
verified that the solution build configuration is fine. Anybody else
seeing this issue?

Error 1 Metadata file 'C:\workspace\Product\Projects\Proj1\bin\Release
\Proj1.dll' could not be found Proj2

I've never run into this problem.
Try to compile in release mode first, what happens?

Hi there, it's because you have created a reference to an assembly (dll
or exe) instead of a project. Remove the reference and re-add it as a
project reference

That was my first thought. Unfortunately, that isn't the problem.
