Xcode duplicate symbol _main

I'm getting the following error in Xcode 3.2.1 on Snow Leopard 10.6.2 whenever I try to compile any iPhone application generated by Appcelerator Titanium. However, the build error only appears when I select iPhone simulator on the architecture menu and if I select the iPhone device, I am able to run the app on my device .

Further more, the iPhone simulator launches successfully and executes the program directly from the Titanium environment which uses Xcode to build .

Why is this happening ?

ld: duplicate symbol _main in Resources/libTitanium.a(main.o) and /Users/prithviraj/Documents/project/Final/build/iphone/build/Final.build/Debug-iphonesimulator/Final.build/Objects-normal/i386/main.o collect2: ld returned 1 exit status Command /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/usr/bin/gcc-4.2 failed with exit code 1

I can't tell you why this is happening, but I can suggest a workaround. When I commented out the entire contents of the main.m file that was generated for my Titanium project, I was able to compile successfully and run on the Simulator. Let me know if that works for you.
