More on the crash on importing .qif

I see a whole list of items in the
"Match payees/memos to GnuCash accounts" window
during the import. The GnuCash account name
is 'Unspecified" for all in the list.

However, in searching thru the qif file (thanks to the tip
that it's in ascii, I hadn't looked at it before), it appears
that all of these lines in the "Match payees" window
are from Memos I have in various stock account
transactions and so shouldn't be matched to any
account or anything. They're a comment.

Evidently gnucash does not like Memos in
stock transactions.
Could this be what's causing the crash as well?

Also, is there a spec anyplace of the format of the
qif file?
