Xcode beta will damage your computer: you should move it to the trash

Got this from two separate downloads of Xcode 7.1 beta. Any ideas?

I don't know why you're calling this nonsense: that's the exact error message I got. As I said, I got it after trying to open the app, twice. Two separate downloads. It seems to have been a Gatekeeper problem: changing system security preferences to allow apps downloaded from "Anywhere" allowed it to open.

We've seen reports of such issues. Please grab a sysdiagnose report and attach it to a new bug report (using the Report Bugs link at the bottom of this page). Thanks!

It's not a problem with Gatekeeper, it's a problem with your copy of OS X or your copy of Xcode. That's why I asked for a bug report, so that we can make sure to fix this properly. Relaxing the gatekeeper check for now is an OK workaround, but it's not a real fix.
