The way that I did it is this:
1. Use NetInfo Manager (it's in the "Utilities" folder, inside the
"Applications folder) to enable the 'root' account. See this URL
for details:
http://qdea.com/pages/pages-sprox/sprox10.html#rootlogin
2. Log in as 'root'.
3. Open the XCode project.
4. Debug away. When interapplication communication was involved, I
ran both parts in the same instance of XCode.
This will work for some situations, but if a particular application
behaves differently in the cases where the user is logged in as root
and when it's just running as root, this may not be helpful.

I don't think that running Xcode via 'sudo' will work:
sudo open /Developer/Applications/Xcode.app
Pseudo might work:

I have not tried it with Xcode, but I have used it successfully
with other
apps.
To the original poster, you can also reconfigure httpd so it runs as
non-root, uses a non-privileged port, etc. You have to edit root-
owned
files to do this, but it might be safer in the long run than
debugging
while running as root.
This seems like material for an Xcode feature request. Surely a
fair number of people have a need from time to time to debug an
application running as root, and as far as I can tell there is no
way -- or at least no obvious or trivial way -- to do so. Am I
missing something or should I file a request in radar?
