It should not crash, and I'd love if you could send me a simple test-case (minimal schematic + symbol) which reproduces the bug. The typo you describe should not have caused the grief... and I'm pretty surprised that is what resolved the issue. If you send me a test-case, I'll check I can reproduce and try to get the bug fixed. It might just be gattrib choking over pinlabel attributes in general.. I don't think it (yet) handles them properly - as typically gattrib just lets you edit _component_ attributes.
