[Bug 1308525] [NEW] Try/Install Ubuntu screen crashes when selecting a specific language

[Pierre Equoy]

Public bug reported:

Test done in Virtualbox 4.2.16 with this ISO:
http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/314/builds/66872/downloads

When selecting a specific language (see screenshot attached), the screen
freezes, then crashes. Finally, Xubuntu (Live) is launched in English
with a dialog box asking me if I want to report a problem.

Note: The problem happens only with this language. All the other ones,
when selected, behave properly.
