Compiled nib files include extra ~ipad or ~iphone in filename

Classification:Other Bug Reproducible:Always
 
Summary:
When compiled using Xcode 6.3 (iOS 8.3 SDK), some nib files end up with an extra ~ipad or ~iphone in certain circumstances. For example,  ViewController~ipad.xib becomes ViewController~ipad~ipad.nib. This is causing a crash because the app doesn't expect the compiled nib files to have the double suffix.

This appears to be a bug in the version of ibtool included with Xcode 6.3 (and the iOS 8.3 SDK).

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new .xib file with a device-specific suffix (either ~iphone or ~ipad). For example: ViewController~ipad.xib.
2. Enable Size Classes in the document (check the checkbox).
3. Run the following command:
    xcrun --sdk iphonesimulator8.3 ibtool --minimum-deployment-target 7.0 --compile ViewController~ipad.nib ViewController~ipad.xib

Expected Results:
Prior to Xcode 6.3, the output file produced by the command above would be ViewController~ipad.nib. This is the expected behavior.

Actual Results:
The output filename is ViewController~ipad~ipad.nib.

Version:
Xcode 6.3 (6D570), Mac OS X 10.10.3 (14D131)

Notes:
Disabling size classes in the affected .xib files solves the problem.
