Summary:
I tried to create a new playground.  I got a message blurb "Unable to create device set at $HOME/Library/Developer/XCPGDevices

Along with a button that says "report a bug" - see attached screenshot

That directory exists and has stuff in it:

% ls -ld !$
ls -ld ~/Library/Developer/XCPGDevices/
drwxr-xr-x  7 markd  staff  238 Feb  2 15:03 /Users/markd/Library/Developer/XCPGDevices//
% ls -l !$
ls -l ~/Library/Developer/XCPGDevices/
total 0

The project is attached.

c.f. rdar://29884107 - Xcode needs a "collect all pertinent information" button to ease bug reporting when Xcode vomits on itself.  - I would like to include some information immediately when the problem happens, rather than (probably) months later.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new  iOS playground

Expected Results:
1. A working iOS playground

Actual Results:
1. Error, button to report a bug

Version:
Version 8.3 beta 4 (8W143q)
10.12.2 (16C67)

Notes:
sigh.

Configuration:
