Yes, I tried to make it smart enough to avoid redoing work that was
already done.

The above error is a bug in the httpd build process related to newer
versions of Visual Studio. Since everything shares the same
intermediate directories concurrent builds start blowing up over this
log file. The correct fix for this is to use different intermediate
build directories for each module. This is a major change to the
httpd build system so I didn't do it. Rather I applied a workaround
by setting a flag that tells Visual Studio not to use the files that
create the problem.

Let me see if I can reproduce this on my end.

What's the exact version of Visual Studio 2012 that you're using? I'm
on 11.0.50727.1. I haven't bothered to apply the updates to it.
