The same thing happened to a friend. For whatever reason, he had a smaller diameter seatpost in there and the seat tube cracked right by the collar when he tightened down.
His wasn’t a first generation stumpy, tho. Believe it was a mid 90s metal matrix iteration.
Anyway, a bike mechanic buddy was able to round it out enough to get the right diameter seatpost back in there but it wasn’t pretty.
