Linker Error after upgrading from CCS 5.4 to CCS 5.5 (or newer)

After updating CCS 5.4 to a newer Version a Project which compiled and linked perfectly fine suddenly  throws a linker error.

Console Output in Version CCS 5.4:

"./src/utility/assert/component/assert_cpu.obj" -lF021_API_CortexR4_LE_V3D16.lib -l"rtsv7R4_T_le_v3D16_eabi.lib" "C:/svn/trunk/bootloader/src/hal/bl_link.cmd"
<Linking>
'Finished building target: bootloader.out'

Console Output in Version CCS 5.5 (or newer):

'ARM Linker: bootloader.out'
"C:/svn//trunk//src/hal/bl_link.cmd", line 48: error #10008-D:
   cannot find file "F021_API_CortexR4_LE_V3D16.lib"
        F021_API_CortexR4_LE_V3D16.lib (.text)
error #10010: errors encountered during linking;
   "bootloader.out" not built

The path to the "F021_API_CortexR4_LE_V3D16.lib" libray is correctly specified in the project settings:

    What happens if you change the search path to an absolute path?  I suspect that the relative path you have listed is not resolving to where you think it should.  Personally I prefer to use variables.

    For example I have a search path entry setup as "${workspace_loc:/${ProjName}}/../../test"

    This is relative to my project location.

    When I invoke the linker I can see the resulting path in bold below

    'Invoking: MSP430 Linker'
    "C:/ti/ccs601/ccsv6/tools/compiler/msp430_4.3.3/bin/cl430" -vmspx --abi=eabi --data_model=restricted -O2 --advice:power=all -g --define=__MSP430F5529__ --diag_warning=225 --display_error_number --diag_wrap=off --silicon_errata=CPU21 --silicon_errata=CPU22 --silicon_errata=CPU23 --silicon_errata=CPU40 --printf_support=minimal -z -m"5529msp.map" --heap_size=160 --stack_size=160 --use_hw_mpy=F5 --cinit_hold_wdt=on -i"C:/ti/ccs601/ccsv6/ccs_base/msp430/include" -i"C:/Users/myusername/test"

    Under Build -> Link Order:

    Add the files to link with.
