Bug: Custom UITabBarController calling ViewDidLoad from base constructor.

gistfile1.cs

using System;
using MonoTouch.Foundation;
using MonoTouch.UIKit;

namespace TabBarFailTest {
    public class Application {
        static void Main(string[] args) {
            try {
                UIApplication.Main(args, null, "AppDelegate");
            }
            catch (Exception ex) {
                Console.WriteLine("Top-level exception: {0}", ex);
            }
        }
    }

    [Register ("AppDelegate")]
    public partial class AppDelegate : UIApplicationDelegate {
        UIWindow window;
        FailingTabBarController failingTabBarController;

        public override bool FinishedLaunching(UIApplication app, NSDictionary options) {
            window = new UIWindow(UIScreen.MainScreen.Bounds);

            SomeClass something = new SomeClass();
            failingTabBarController = new FailingTabBarController(something) {
                ViewControllers = new [] {
                    new UIViewController() { TabBarItem = new UITabBarItem(UITabBarSystemItem.Favorites, 0) }
                }
            };
            window.RootViewController = failingTabBarController;
            window.MakeKeyAndVisible();
            
            return true;
        }
    }

    public class SomeClass {
        public string SomeProperty = "test1";
        public string SomeOtherProperty = "test2";
    }

    public class FailingTabBarController : UITabBarController {
        public SomeClass Something { get; set; }
        public FailingTabBarController(SomeClass something) {
            this.Something = something;
        }
        
        public override void ViewDidLoad() {
            base.ViewDidLoad();

            // Throws null exception because base UITabBarController constructor
            // calls this method directly (before the inheriting class constructor
            // is called to set properties).
            this.Title = Something.SomeProperty;
        }
    }
}
