I haven't seen it, but my first guess would be that this is related to incremental linking.  If you can reproduce the problem with some reliability, what I would do is save the freshly-built .o then save the first one that breaks, and submit those along with the bug.

Then, turn off incremental linking (is that still possible?) and see if you can reproduce it ever.

Hi all,

In Xcode 4.3.1 (and 4.4) I'm sometimes seeing intermittent link errors like this:

ld: in /Volumes/Leopard/Users/sean/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/Brainsight2-fhvqfntdllihjyeacqxffrkancoh/Build/Intermediates/Brainsight2.build/Debug/Brainsight.build/Objects-normal/x86_64/RRAnalyzeReader.o, mach-o symbol table extends beyond end of file for architecture x86_64
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

If I clean and build again, it will link and run fine.  After a few iterations of build-debug-edit-link-debug it will eventually fail to link again.  The file it complains about isn't even one I've been changing.

Anyone else see this?  I'd file a bug, but there's little to go on....
