I removed an older version of Xcode following the instructions in How to fully remove Xcode 4 and then installed version 4.3 from AppStore. But now /developer directory is missing.

I can find the same directory structure in /applications/xcode.app/contents/Developer/. Is /developer just a link to that directory and how can I create it again?

    According to the XCode 4.3 release notes, the /developer directory is no longer needed.

    /Developer No Longer Exists

    The simplification afforded by repackaging
    Xcode 4.3 as a single app bundle eliminates the need for the
    /Developer directory containing prior versions of Xcode. As a result,
    the Install Xcode application and the uninstall-devtools command line
    script are also no longer needed.
