As seen in ticket:61458 I was confused by the advice given by the warning
message when the command line tool SDK was out of date. It states to run
xcode-select --install, but this is not sufficient sometimes.
How about changing it to:
Warning: You can install it as part of the Xcode Command Line Tools
package by running `xcode-select --install'. In some cases, you may need
to remove /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools before doing so.
I think this would reduce confusion and support overhead.
