It seems that every time Apple updates Xcode it breaks LC, requiring the 
team to set aside other work and rush another build out for that one OS. 
  Many of the 7.0.x/6.7.x builds seem to fall into that category, and 
those of us waiting for resolution on issues for other platforms find 
this as frustrating as I'm sure the team does.

Working with Android is smooth as silk by comparison, rarely requiring 
any updates at all.

What is it that makes the relationship between LC and Xcode so brittle 
that it requires revision with every Xcode update?

Is there anything that can be done to anticipate and work around what 
appears to be a disregard for backward compatibility in Xcode?
