New Post: Crash when compiling via build machines

We've been using CM at our company for a few months now to do some basic view / view model binding, and have just recently expanded our use of it by adding ContentControls to our window and binding them to a property on the window's view model that contains the view model for the ContentControl. Everything works just fine in our debuggers when we compile in both Debug and Release mode in VS2010. However, when we run a build that's compiled by our build machines, we see the exception shown below (with 3 inner exceptions below it).

When we replace the app executable compiled by our build machine with the app executable compiled by our VS2010 debugger in Release mode, everything works and no exception is thrown. Therefore, the problem doesn't seem to be caused by a missing DLL or other dependency, and it actually looks like the executable is being compiled differently by the build machine.

Why would CM behave differently when built via a build machine than when built via a VS2010 debugger? We're currently investigating but I'm really hoping to get some insight here to help point us in the right direction.
