I also am having the problem.  Rebooting fixes it.  My SCM person just
has gotten used to rebooting the machine several times during a build for
me, sometimes killing off bad object files that didn't get flushed to disk.
I can't reproduce it in a consistent way either, but my sources (almost
10MB) almost always generate at least one of these errors during a complete
build.
