I think that the reason is that the file that <p4sync/> attempts to sync is locked by another process. Example, someone has opened the file with UltraEdit or with TextPad. Try to find the culprit using for instance procexp.exe from sysinternals if you are working on Windows.
The same error would happen if you tried to sync the same file with p4win or with p4.exe directly (the latter is used by ant).
