I updated to Microsoft.Windows.CppWinRT.2.0.201102.2 (was on 2.0.200729.8) and now get build errors in a console app project that contains a .idl file. midl.exe reports an internal error.

The response files contents are the problem, containing .winmd references from multiple copies of the SDK.

I see #781 might be related. either fixing, or causing this problem.
