I found the issue!

The crash is due to the fact certainly the schematic Eagle plugin is missing a switch to the "C"
locale (adding a "LOCALE_IO dummy;" declaration before reading the file), so the floating numbers
create issues in countries that use the comma as floating number separator (like in France).

However, when parsing a file, the Eagle plugin should show an error and abort the load process,
without crashing Eeschema.
