Brendan, as of now, it seems that the Dropbox API does not support Bitcode. You can get rid of the error by removing the API from your Xcode project, but more preferably, you can switch off Bitcode as a Build Setting in the Project Navigator for your iOS app. If you're working with an OS X app, you'll be required to enable Bitcode, which just means that the Dropbox Sync API is currently unavailable to any OS X 10.11 projects, unfortunately. I came across this information from one of the engineers who wrote the Bitcode platform at Apple. I'm currently at WWDC in San Francisco.
