It doesn't generate a core dump for me in either version, but it doesn't
work correctly either.

A simpler version is:
> parse(text="a %in% b")
expression(a 0n% b)

It looks like the %i is being used as a printf format string, which might
well cause a core dump.

This isn't happening inside parse, but inside print, since
> parse(text="a %in% b")[[1]]
a %in% b
