After the recent update to Update 4 creating a new web application is by default causing a build error. The real error message is as follows:
This project references NuGet package(s) that are missing on this computer. Enable NuGet Package Restore to download them. For more information, see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=317567.
Editing the project file revealed the following line:

I tried installing the Microsoft.Bcl.Build through Nuget, but that installed version 1.0.21 instead of 1.0.14 and further the new version did not have the required tools\Microsoft.Bcl.Build.targets file.
The best option for me was to take out the lines from the project file.
