This is true for Xcode, and Xcode's native build system. Keep in mind though that this is not generally true for UNIX build systems. If you depend on a non-native build system it's likely that it will expect to find UNIX development tools installed into "/". This is why we provide the separate Command Line Tools package. For reasons that should be obvious there can be only one such package installed at one time.
Finally, if you depend on a non-native build system but are in a position to modify it, you can avoid the dependency on having tools installed in "/" by indirecting via xcrun. Read the man pages for xcrun and xcode-select for more info.
