"Problem with the existing metadata for this class"

I have started getting the following message with increasing frequency:
 
"Severity and Description Path Resource Location Creation Time Id
Compilation error: Problem with the existing metadata for this class, try deleting the class first or contact support Fairsail Develop/Apex Classes CompetencyAssessment.cls line 1 1192792313859 4150"
The cure is to delete the class and paste it back in again.  This is getting to be a hastle since it sometimes happens on almost any change to a class source.  It doesn't just happen with one class - several have done it.  I can't spot a pattern as to when it occurs.
 
What is causing it?
 
How can I avoid it?
 
If it is a bug can it be fixed?
