Quoting the docs for that property:

*Note:* Using this attribute should be avoided and used only as a
last-resort. Please read Handling Runtime
Changes<http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/resources/runtime-changes.html>
for
more information about how to properly handle a restart due to a
configuration change.

I highly recommend you spend the time figuring out how to do this correctly
then wasting time on a hack that will cause other problems.
