I have had a similar (not compiler-related) problem on Vista which had me
just as puzzled:

Details here:

But the basic result was that the problem was all to do with Vista's user
account
control; shadow-copying files unexpectedly.

If you're on Vista, it might be something to do with that.

If not - no idea, I'm afraid!
