I'm converting my iOS 5 app to work with iOS 4.x as well, and by FB and Twitter sharing are not working. Admittedly, I have customized the views, so I thought it might be something I'm doing. However, I can consistently reproduce the crash with a new repository clone in the example ShareKit app.

Step to Reproduce:
1. Clone ShareKit repository
2. Launch the sample ShareKit project.
3. Select ShareKit > iPhone 4.3 Simulator scheme.
4. Run the app.
5. Select "Sharing Text"
6. Select the share button and choose Facebook
7. Log in and approve app for Facebook use
8. Touch inside the text view to select some of the text.
9. See the Crash

Repeating the steps above replacing Facebook with Twitter produces the same results.
Repeating the steps above for both Facebook and Twitter, but selecting iOS 5 instead works just fine, no crash, no issues.

In fact, just tried it sharing Email as well, and same result.
