Reusing view in UIPickerView with iOS 7

EDIT 12-14-2015 : This problem is again frequently reported on iOS 7, iOS 8, iOS 9.... I think Apple want not of this control anymore, and should just forbid us to use it instead of let such a major bug

I use a UIPickerView with custom views loaded from a Xib. I was using the method

-(UIView *)pickerView:(UIPickerView *)pickerView viewForRow:(NSInteger)row 
    forComponent:(NSInteger)component reusingView:(UIView *)view

from UIPickerViewDelegate to reuse my views.

With iOS 6, my UIPickerview works perfectly and my views are reused.

Since iOS 7, the reusingView is always nil, so I need to load the NIB for each row (I have 250 rows). My views are doing some treatments so it can take a little part of memory but x250 = big memory leak.

To be sure of what the problem is, I did a simple project with a UILabel :

-(UIView *)pickerView:(UIPickerView *)pickerView viewForRow:(NSInteger)row forComponent:(NSInteger)component reusingView:(UIView *)view {

    UILabel *label = (UILabel *)view;
    if(view == nil) {
        label = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, pickerView.frame.size.width, 76)];
    }
    else {
        NSLog(@"*******************************************************");
    }
    NSLog(@"Current inndex : %i",row);
    label.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"TITRE %i", row];
    return label;
}

With iOS 6, my views are correctly reused :

But with iOS 7, it's an all-new story... :

So what's wrong? iOS or ...?

I have reported my problem to Apple Technical Support. They confirm the bug :

There does indeed seem to be a difference between the behavior in iOS 6 and 7.

They ask me to report a bug on the bugreport tool. Now, just wait for the fix :)
