This seems like something you'd instantly want to file a critical
bug on. A crash so bad that it turns the power off certainly seems
to me that it meets the criteria:
1 critical makes unrelated software on the system (or the
whole system) break, or causes serious data loss,
or introduces a security hole on systems where you
install the package.
