I think it depends what you mean by "crash".  To me "crash" means
something like a segfault or coredump, and I expect we treat it as a bug
in Emacs.
OTOH if you get a meaningful error message before the "crash", then the
meaningful error message should hopefully clarify whether it's a bug in
Emacs or a bug in your use of it.
