From my experience that's correct. Apple don't want you to support old hardware so they don't facilitate. When you update Xcode it even deleted old versions if it can find. Also new Xcode doesn't support compiling for pre armv7 (if I'm not mistaken here) meaning only 3GS and newer (iPad one is gone too).
So yeah you'll have to go through all those hoops to get legacy stuff running.
Cheers,

The thing is, they still have users on first-generation devices and iPhone 3Gs, so I need to make sure the apps still work there, while also taking advantage of the larger display of the new iPhone / iPod touch. I've kept Xcode 4.4.1 so I can target armv6, and i've Xcode 4.5 to target the new. I'm thinking i'll have to build these apps with 4.4.1, then again with 4.5, and lipo them together.
