There's nothing helpful in the build log, unfortunately.

It seems to happen the first time I debug after turning my pc on in the
morning.
If i wait a minute or two after loggin in before opening visual studio, then
wait another 2 minutes for sourcesafe to finish doing its checking the
problem doesn't happen.
