Over on the Azure Mobile Services forum Chuck Weininger has posted the following answer:

The [fixed] build of Azure SDK 2.6 is now available, but it may not have propagated to all download servers yet.

The build number for the version with the fixes is build 2.6.30508.1601. You can identify the build of the SDK from Control Panel -> Programs and Features -> Microsoft Azure Tools for Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 – v 2.6. The Version column will display the build number

I have followed Chuck's instructions and have the new build and the shared project now loads without issue.
