These are an easy fix to the SMILES reader. Currently, we only take single 
digits for charge. Now I think the molecule is preposterous (e.g., lithium 
doesn't have 251 electrons to remove!) but I can certainly imagine some metals 
with formal charges of +10 or above. 

My feeling is that eMolecules probably wants to add some level of filtering to 
remove species with highly unusual valence.

Also, does the SMILES format have a "continue after error" flag like SDF? That 
seems like a good addition.

I found this similar bug when doing fragment analysis last night. I have a 
defensive fix which solves the segfault but does not fix the analysis. I'll 
commit that shortly which is useful anyway.

That makes a lot of sense. It definitely seems like trunk is getting much 
closer to "bullet-proof" which is a good sign before a release. Next come 
thousands of users who will test our definition of bullet-proof. :-)
