xcode 4 iOS 4.3 project template doesn't work

Question

I'm trying to create a multi-view iOS (4.3) application in xcode 4 using the view-based application template but have so far had no luck. Everything builds but then crashes without error, with me getting the message SIGABRT in the line "int retVal = UIApplicationMain(argc, argv, nil, nil);" in supporting file-> main.m

The same thing happens in both my application and the plain (view-based application ) template from xcode.

Any ideas what the problem might be?

Here's the log:

It's telling you that UISplitViewController is not supported on the iPhone - only works on the iPad.
