Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.
Without a stack trace from the crash it's hard to determine what caused it.
Can you get us a stack trace (with debugging symbols)? Please see http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces for more information on how to do so. Thanks in advance!

I can confirm this annoying behavior in Gentoo Linux with the same release version of GCMD. 

Just as a workaround, use "F5" for copying and "F6" for moving by now. In these cases, GCMD doesn't crash if the filename is already existing in the target directory.
Comment 3 Uwe Scholz 2014-06-15 20:52:03 UTC 
This bug has been fixed in the current development branch and will go in the next release, v1.4.3.
Comment 4 tomislav.parcina 2014-07-01 14:01:19 UTC 
I can confirm that the bug is fixed in 1.4.3 version (FC20).
