Yes. Poorly written untested code moved to production, with a fatal bug that crashes when sent an invalid transaction message.

The important take-away from this though, is that miners that are signalling for BU remain largely unaffected, which means they're using core software for mining, while signalling BU. That's a vote of confidence to the alternate client.
