SIMCTL error

Today, debug runs of an iOS app have started failing sporadically with a message to say compilation failed and I may want to delete the file and start again
unexpected data returned from simctl

The system debug log contains this:

Any clues there?

First thing I would do is Simulator menu > Hardware > Erase all content and settings.

Did you try with another simulator device?

That works
Shutting it all down and starting up again seems to help too.
I just cant work out what the problem is.
