Where does xCode usually create "temporary" files like those?
I don't know, but if Xcode created them under /tmp, then when you
rebooted they would have gotten moved to the Trash, under
"Recovered Files" or something like that.
That is incorrect. Everything in /tmp/ is directly deleted on
reboot; no option for recovery.
That used to be the case, but it changed in 10.4:

A folder called Recovered Files appears in my Trash
One or more Recovered Files folder may appear in your Trash after
restarting your computer. The recovered files are temporary files
used by Mac OS X applications. Usually temporary files are deleted
by an application when it no longer needs them. If an application
quits unexpectedly, the temporary files may not get deleted by the
application. When you restart your computer, Mac OS X moves these
temporary files to the Trash.
