Jim,
It could, until just a couple days ago, but that's been lessened
significantly. Now, it won't let you teleport to it, if you're coming
from older code, if the destination is larger than 256x256. That
eliminates a huge problem, right there. You get a nice, graceful refusal
of the teleport and no crash.
Now, it is still true, that if you wish to teleport from a 0.8, 256x256
region to a region larger than 256x256, you must be using a viewer that
supports large regions. I don't think that is unreasonable.
However, if it were possible for the large region to determine whether
the incoming viewer is new enough to support it or not, then I would be
in favor of it gracefully refusing teleports from viewers that do not.
That would close the other vector for crashes due to old code.

P.S.: As the saying goes, "you catch more flies with honey, than you do
with vinegar." Something to keep in mind.
