Out of curiosity, right click on your old nib and see if it is a package containing more nibs.
One thing you could do is a file compare on the files if you still have the intermediate stage file.
At some stage, nib files are/were XML files and depending on the file, one nib file may be a package that contains more.
I'm looking at several nibs and xibs now (some back to IB V1) and it looks like there are some cases where there are nibs inside nibs, as well as multiple different flavors of data allowed to sit within a nib file, from plain old XML, to pList style XML, various key/value structures and what looks like an encoded reference table.
It would at least be interesting to see the structure change from V3 to 4.6.1 style to 5.0.2.

Does Xcode 4.6.3 run under Mavericks? Using ibtool on 10.7 Lion did not fix the nib file, apparently because it was corrupted in some way. However, I was eventually able to build the Automator action in Xcode 4.6.3 on Lion, getting an alert in the process that a minor inconsistency in the nib file had been found and corrected. I then moved the "corrected" nib file to Xcode 5.0.2 on Mavericks, and it shows up properly in Xcode and builds as it should.
Success, though I don't know why.
