Sounds like you need to follow Apple's instructions for completely uninstalling Xcode 3.2.6. It's near the end of the About Xcode PDF. I can't find an Apple link for that but it's this:

Of course, it's possible that this automated removalprocess didn't happen for some reason.

The reason I suggested manually uninstalling the old Xcode is that that is what I had to do on my system. I migrated to a Lion system from a Snow Leopard system, and Xcode 3.2.6 was migrated over too. Then when I installed Xcode 4.3 via the Mac App Store, it did not automatically uninstall the old Snow Leopard Xcode, even after opening Xcode.app. I even unintentionally opened the old Xcode 3.2.6 app after that, and was confused why Xcode 4 features had gone missing.
