Set up Xcode so that you're ready to reproduce this problem.
In Terminal do:
sleep 5; printf '\a'; sample Xcode; printf '\a'
During the first 5-second sleep, switch back to Xcode and hold down backspace. When you hear the second beep, release it. See if the sample report holds a clue as to what Xcode is doing. It may lead you to a way to avoid the problem. You can also include it in a bug report to Apple.
