ld.exe fails due to missing .elf file

It seems like NBEclipse randomly stops creating an .elf file to pass to the ld.exe command.

I will have a project that builds just fine, repeatedly. Then, a single, random code change will cause the build to fail when the ELF file fails to get created. Some random set of gyrations will get it working again (Restart eclipse, restart laptop, etc) until it decides to act up again. I have lost entire days to this problem, and today isn't looking promising.

It doesn't seem to be project dependent, as a project that did build will fail if I open it while this problem is occurring.

Please tell me I'm not the only one that has this problem. Any Ideas?

It appears that it is creating an empty .map file, which I assume is part of the problem.

The LD makes the ELF file.
What platform and can you post the whole error message?
