This error happens randomly, but on average about every 10-15 builds.
We looked through Process Explorer and the TFS Build Agent itself (TFSBuildServiceHost.exe), not a child process, held the reference to ProfileLinker.dll.
Our custom template is based off of the DefaultTemplate.11.1.WithTypemock. We added some customizations: variables for directory names and XML PreProcess. I have attached the file.
In the build prior to the error, we saw that the TypeMockStop activity was successfully executed.
Here are the details of the activities from the build prior to the error (with Company and License masked):
