How is building against a newer SDK than what you are running going to
work?  I confess I haven't tried this in a bulk build yet, but I'm
pretty sure it's going to end badly (or worse, in ways that are hard
to debug).

For now the only sensible route seems to be installing the Command
Line Tools as indicated, until Apple either start shipping the 10.10
SDK in XCode 7, or stop tricking 10.10 users into upgrading to an
XCode which doesn't support their system.
