MonoTouch iOS8 not calling LoadView

gistfile1.txt

// Recreate the home screen menu in case things have changed since the last sync
AppDelegate delegateReference = (AppDelegate)UIApplication.SharedApplication.Delegate;

// This if should always be true. Just being defensive to prevent crash shutdown if it's not
var viewControllers = delegateReference.rootNavigationController.ViewControllers;
if (viewControllers != null && viewControllers[0] is HomeScreen)
{
	var homeScreen = (HomeScreen)viewControllers[0];
	homeScreen.Root = homeScreen.CreateRoot();
	// This line of code is needed in iOS8. It ends up triggering LoadView()
	// Without it, the Reload will end up with a null TableView and crash
	var view = homeScreen.View;
	homeScreen.Root.Reload(homeScreen.rootSection, UITableViewRowAnimation.None);
