Stack Trace of the crash collected from Windows

I have a QIF file downloaded from my credit card company that is incorrectly built. Instead of beginning with "!TYPE:CC", the file begins with two blank lines and then the usual data starts. I can only attach one file to this bug report, so here is the content of the QIF file.

<--- Line 1 of the file is blank instead of !TYPE:CC
<--- Line 2 of the file is blank

When I attempt to import this file into GnuCash 2.6.7, the program gets to the point of reporting an error because the file is incorrect and then crashes.

- My version of GnuCash is: "built from git rev 757a50c+ on 2015-06-29".
- I run 64 bit Windows 7 on a Dell Inspirion 17 laptop that is less than one year old. Windows patches and updates are current.

These are the steps I take to invoke the crash. They are repeatable and occur every time.

1 - Open GnuCash with or without an existing data file.

2 - Select File -> Import -> Import QIF ...

3 - The "Import QIF Files" popup opens and I press the "Forward" button

4 - The "Select a QIF file to Load" popup opens. I use the "Select" button to select the incorrectly structured QIF, then press the "Forward" button.

5 - The "Load QIF files" popup opens. I press the "Start" button.

6 - After I press the "Start" button, the display window on the popup shows an error message: "Line 3: File does not appear to be in QIF format: C* Read aborted". The message is accurate in that Line 3 does contain "C*".

7 - A few seconds after that, the popup and the main gnucash window "gray out" and a Windows error message popup appears. It reports "gnucash.exe has stopped working" and gives me a "Close Program" button. I press "Close Program" and GnuCash disappears.

8 - The next time I start GnuCash, the popup saying "GnuCash could not obtain the lock file ..." opens. I select "Open Anyway" and the program performs works normally.
