iOS app crash on locale change

When I leave my app, goto the settings and changes the language on the phone, my app (still resident in the background) crashes. Is there an interface or something that I should be implementing or is this expected behaviour?

The code that I'm using is very simple, really just one xib, localized to english and french. There is no crash log that is product, but the console outputs the following:

In all likelihood, the app probably doesn't crash. It gets killed by the operating system.

This is indeed expected behavior. All apps are killed on a language change, both on simulator and device.
