iOS 6 Player Error Message under XCode 4.5

If I build the Gideros iOS player under Xcode 4.5 and run on an iOS 6 device then I see this in the log:
Running the same code (built with Xcode 4.5) using an iOS 5 device doesn't produce this error
Perhaps this is the source of the autorotation bug mentioned here.
I should also point out that any UIViews created in landscape mode (either with Hot Wax or with UIKit) on the 4.5/iOS6 combination are screwed up. Some are rotated to landscape and some are not.
If I run the same tests with XCode 4.3 there is no debug message and the screwy rotation doesn't occur. For the time being I'm happy to stay with XCode 4.3.1 but for a time I did have an issue debugging on an iOS 6 device using this version (i.e. Xcode would complain and not see the device). For anyone else who has this problem, I think the solution is to install XCode 4.5 in parallel so you have both versions in your Applications folder.

btw, do you think it is safe to install two Xcodes in parallel?
As I said, I had an issue where XCode 4.3 wouldn't allow me to see an iOS 6 iPad (complaining that it didn't have the right SDK version). I followed some instructions to d/l just the v6 SDK and add it to the XCode package. However, this didn't work and ended up showing me two devices with the same name inside Xcode and I still couldn't connect.
So I renamed XCode to XCode 4.3 and then downloaded and installed 4.5. I fiddled around with the names some more and I now have two copies of XCode, one called "Xcode" and the other "Xcode 4.5". I can now have both XCodes running at once and connect two devices, one iOS5 and one iOS6 and swap between them. Appears to be working fine.
BTW, it's a good idea to keep one of the installations as just plain "XCode" since some third party tools may expect to find it under that name.
