Nice.
Not only you do denigrate the efforts of other developers simple
because you disagree with the goals of their work, you show your own
cynicism by bitching about it rather than offering anything of
constructive value.
Perhaps it would be better to ask about the INTENT of a bug, or item
that you feel is bloat (something I don't see in Xcode, but then I've
spent alot of time with Borland's Delphi and Microsoft's Visual
Studio. Both product that cost upwards of a $1000 US).
Garbage Collection, is in my opinion a tool that promotes sloppy
programming, but that doesn't change the fact that the compiler
supports it, and that while it probably doesn't make sense for
Objective C(++) projects, it is viable for C targets, and since the
flag is a pass through to GCC, it probably does have valid uses,
despite the fact that you may never need it.
If there is one thing I've learned after 15 years of software
development, it's that no two developer's will ever view anything
software related in the same light, and that there are only two types
of developers, those that can see another point of view, and those
that can't.
In short, please refrain from your useless complaining, and do
something constructive with your obvious talents.

I would hazard a guess that Cem is referring to the "Enable
Objective-C Garbage Collection" compiler option in the Xcode build

that it doesn't currently do anything useful.
Aaah, so the XCode team is not only very busy adding more bloat,
more bugs, more crashes and more clutter, they *ALSO* add features
wich do nothing... Oh my, how I love this IDE... :>
