Seem to me that Xcode 4.6.3 and iOS 6 SDK is still working, from my friends.

(People do you still remember that OS X derived from NeXTSTEP, to the extent that OS X 10.0 have version number 4.0, picking up where NeXTSTEP left off, and this still count till now like OS X 10.9 = NeXTSTEP 13?)

Any client of UIKit like MapKit now also needs versions A and B, because it can't have just one version that links to both UIKits. Propagate that across the rest of the framework tree and you end up with two complete copies of every system framework. That's bad for disk space and memory usage, if you have two apps open that use different versions.
