1.3.8 is of course not stable, but labeled unstable. All software is 
subject to bugs that stop the program. I can't say it doesn't happen, 
but I've never had Scribus not only crash but also freeze up my computer 
so that more than my Scribus data is lost. I can't say the same for a 
lot of proprietary software and OSes out there.
