Funny, this happened with a wand of corruption as well. At least SPD saved the game before crashing, and the wand worked fine after restarting the game.
Whoa, really? That's awesome. I'd change the the text to make it less plausible, something along the lines of "the cursed wand just fried your device" or similar.
Do you have the seed of the run that the crash happened? I want to do some tests. I know I'm not the dev, but I find it fun to hunt for details that cause the crash to happen.
