Okay, the problem's caused by fish.inc specifically, but:

1) #version 1.0; is fine;
2) non-comma-delimited vectors after #version 1.0; are fine;
3) but taking out the #version 1.0; line and fixing fish.inc to use commas as
appropriate for recent versions makes the crash go away.

So I'm a little puzzled as to what's actually causing the crash.
