Back to Xcode 4.3.3?

I'm a bit puzzled about building against the 10.6 SDK.

I understand that the ship has sailed on the issue of the 10.6 SDK being present in Xcode 4.4, but when I try to run Xcode 4.3.3 on 10.8, it tells me that "This installation of Xcode 4.3.3 requires Mac OS X 10.7 Lion."

Er, what happened to "you can always have multiple versions of Xcode on your system"? Wasn't that the justification for dropping older SDKs in newer Xcodes?

FWIW, I'm desirous of building with Xcode 4.3.3 because I ran into the issue described in "http://lists.apple.com/archives/cocoa-dev/2012/Aug/msg00107.html":

with an Xcode 4.4-built app launched on 10.6.8.

I *suspect* that one of the XIB files (well, presumably the main menu XIB, since it always crashes in -[NSImage _allocAuxiliaryStorage] while handling a menu) is built in an incompatible NIB format. (I did check, though, that all the XIBs have their deployment version set to 10.6.)

Building the app in Xcode 4.3.3 (which I did by tediously creating a new 10.7 partition and building it there) does solve the crash, but rebooting's an awfully inconvenient way of doing things.
