Actually the metaCard documentation explicitly says you should (i.e. must) compact stacks before importing them. And I have had this cause runtime errors, though sometimes they are not as dramatic as a system crash. It's in the documentation for a reason. All those stray code snippets can bite back in unforseen ways.
