Well, Windows has file locks, so tyically, if one program has a file open,
another can't have it open. So, I'd guess that either something has the file
open when you're running rdmd, so rdmd can't access it, or rdmd is trying to
access it from multiple processes and sometimes one of its processes is
accessing it when another one tries to. But I don't know if rdmd creates
multiple processes or not.

Personally, I wish that Windows didn't have file locks... :(
