Rebuilding the Xamarin.Android.Build.Tasks project would fail:

$ xbuild
# works

# "change a file
$ touch Tasks/Aapt.cs

# Rebuild; should work, right?
$ xbuild
    Tasks/LinkAssemblies.cs(103,32): error CS0117: `Xamarin.Android.Tasks.Profile' does not contain a definition for `SharedRuntimeAssemblies'
    Utilities/MonoAndroidHelper.cs(230,16): error CS0117: `Xamarin.Android.Tasks.Profile' does not contain a definition for `SharedRuntimeAssemblies'

# wat?

The problem was due to a3dfd4c and 59ec488:

  1. In 59ec488, Xamarin.Android.Build.Tasks.targets was included
    before including $(MSBuildToolsPath)\Microsoft.CSharp.targets.
    This meant that $(IntermediateOutputPath) wasn't set when
    Xamarin.Android.Build.Tasks.targets was imported, and thus
    $(_GeneratedProfileClass) contained no directory name.
  2. In a3dfd4c, the @(Compile) item group was only updated when the
    _GenerateProfileClass target was executed, which only happened
    when $(_GeneratedProfileClass) didn't exist. This is why it
    works on the initial build but not subsequent builds.

Things worked prior to a3dfd4c because the _Foo target always
executed, and thus @(Compile) always contained the generated
Profile.g.cs file.

Fix the <Import/> ordering issue (1), and instead of updating
@(Compile) when the target executes, just add the generated file to
@(Compile) within Xamarin.Android.Build.Tasks.csproj (2).

The problem was due to a3dfd4c *and* 59ec488:

1. In 59ec488, `Xamarin.Android.Build.Tasks.targets` was included
    *before* including `$(MSBuildToolsPath)\Microsoft.CSharp.targets`.
    This meant that `$(IntermediateOutputPath)` wasn't set when
    `Xamarin.Android.Build.Tasks.targets` was imported, and thus
    `$(_GeneratedProfileClass)` contained no directory name.

2. In a3dfd4c, the `@(Compile)` item group was only updated when the
    `_GenerateProfileClass` target was executed, which only happened
    when `$(_GeneratedProfileClass)` didn't exist. This is why it
    works on the initial build but not subsequent builds.

Things worked prior to a3dfd4c because the `_Foo` target *always*
executed, and thus `@(Compile)` always contained the generated
Profile.g.cs file.

`@(Compile)` when the target executes, just add the generated file to
`@(Compile)` within Xamarin.Android.Build.Tasks.csproj (2).
