Good to know.  Can anyone else verify this?

Yes, there's clearly an easy away around the issue.  But the fact that it
crashes instead of throws a parse error is worth noting, IMHO.

My understanding has always been it's better to discuss and verify an issue
before burdening the POV Team with a true bugreport.  Case in point, if they've
fixed the issue in 3.7 beta then there's probably no real point in posting an
official bugreport about 3.6...
