Description

I was trying to upgrade from 1.7.0 to 1.8.x.

When the simulator is already running and I relaunch the application, the console gets about 30 of such error messages:
2012-06-25 14:50:03.876 RSBooks-Mac[2268:1803] *** __NSAutoreleaseNoPool(): Object 0x5a7b740 of class NSFileAttributes autoreleased with no pool in place - just leaking
2012-06-25 14:50:03.880 RSBooks-Mac[2268:1803] *** __NSAutoreleaseNoPool(): Object 0x5d36400 of class __NSDate autoreleased with no pool in place - just leaking

I visited PhoneGap IRC channel and they suggested that it might be so that XCode 3.x is not supported anymore. The latest installation guide says that OSX 1.7 is a requirement, but the upgrade guide doesn't mention anything about that.

If it really is so that XCode 3.x is not supported anymore, then I hope the upgrade guide can be edited (nobody goes to the installation page for upgrades) or if it's a normal bug, then it could be fixed.
