I had read posts on Apple's Xcode mailing list where people were getting bitten by Release being the active build configuration in Xcode 3, and I figured it was an Xcode 3 change.

The default configuration for an Xcode project – as set in the project inspector’s Configurations tab – is actually the configuration that will be used by the “xcodebuild” command-line tool when you don’t give it a “-configuration” argument.

As a convenience, when you open a project that you’ve never opened before (which includes a new project created from a template) the Active Configuration will be set to the default configuration since some developers may expect that meaning for “default.”
