I think this could indeed cause a HUGE market crash:

From a newsletter:

Also weighing on the street are
persistent rumors of a big mutual fund that is in trouble.
If investors are withdrawing money from funds to pay taxes or
simply bail out of the markets, there is the possibility that
a fund that is over leveraged and got caught in the down market
could be failing. If that was announced publicly there would
be a run on remaining funds like the bank panics in the
depression. The Long Term Capital failure shook the markets
but not as bad as a retail fund collapse would. LTC was a
fat cat fund for very large institutions who knew the risks.
A retail fund failure would be catastrophic.
