I don't consider installing Xcode to be an unreasonable thing to do to - consider that 70+% of the people who buy a mac have no need for the compilers or system libraries. So it doesn't seem unreasonable to me - I mean, my debian box doesn't come with any of the devtools installed - and its a couple gigs of software to install.
