typescript 1.3 sometimes giving false type mis-match errors

I am getting the following sometimes when I compile using a WebStorm file watcher which runs tsc:

../paragraph/paragraph.ts(193,29): error TS2345: Argument of type 'TYPE' is not assignable to parameter of type 'TYPE'.
../paragraph/paragraph.ts(255,75): error TS2345: Argument of type 'Paragraph' is not assignable to parameter of type 'Paragraph'.
../paragraph/tab.ts(241,37): error TS2345: Argument of type 'ArrayList<TabAttributes>' is not assignable to parameter of type 'ArrayList<TabAttributes>'.
  Type 'TabAttributes' is not assignable to type 'TabAttributes'.

I'm getting about 20 of these. When I compile using VS2013, no problem. When I run the code, no problem. But the compiler seems to choke on a bunch of this stuff. This only started happening when we upgraded to typescript 1.3.

Clarification: When I do a build all using VisualStudio, I get no errors or warnings from the typescript compile. When WebStorm compiles, I sometimes get it. But WebStorm is just passing the compiler output back to the display.

What's going on?

Update - here's the output compiling in a DOS box:

I've had the exact same issue when I updated to 1.3, after digging for quite some time I've come across the answer.

The 1.3 compiler apparently doesn't like relative paths, so you must use only absolute paths for all compiler arguments.

The problem specifically for me was the $FileName$ (relative path) macro in the TypeScript file watcher arguments.
Changing it to $FilePath$ (absolute path) fixed it.
