Of course, this crash is a severe Stockfish bug, a full.-hearted implementation would test the position before analyzing.
But that's not the only issue with Stockfish. Stockfish is designed for reaching high ELO ratings, it is doing this with aggressive pruning. In analyze mode this aggressive pruning has the effect that Stockfish is often overlooking even simple drawing combinations, and other quite obvious things. For analysis mode alternative engines are of interest, but I don't know which engines are the best for analysis. Some years ago (the free version of) Zappa was a very good engines for wild positions, but the last release is 2005.
