Annoying "Errors running builder 'Android Pre Compiler' on project" dialog

Eclipse / Android : “Errors running builder ‘Android Pre Compiler’ on project…”

I keep getting the following error pop-up every now and then on my Android project on Eclipse 4.2.1:

Title:
'Building workspace has encountered a problem. Errors occurred during the build.

Message:
Errors running builder 'Android Pre Compiler' on project 'xxxx'. java.lang.NullPointerException

FYI, my project has .svn repositories and uses 4 external libraries (that seem to be fine, no errors). I'm using Android 4.2.

What could be the issue here? :(

Have you tried (a) restarting Eclipse, or (b) Project > Clean? — Karakuri, Jan 23 '13 at 15:45
Yes, several times. I've also tried to recreate the project from start. — Michael Eilers Smith, Jan 23 '13 at 15:46
Glad you found your solution, omegatai! I ran into the same problem, but in my case it turns out restarting eclipse was enough. (Also, congrats on your recent 1k rep) — Cephron, Jun 19 '13 at 15:13

Someone found the answer! In my case, it was the svn extension-less files that were causing the problems. See solution here.
