Is this neck crack likely to cause structural issues?

I have an Asian-made, factory-forsaken P bass that I have wanted to restore for a long time now. I'm getting more into it, and have realized there is a crack in the back of the neck. I have no way of knowing how deep it goes.


If it makes any difference, it's centered around the 9th-10th frets.

I don't mind it cosmetically, but would it compromise the structural integrity of the neck, were the bass strung up and tuned to pitch? If so, is there a way to fix it?

(I do want to do everything possible to use this neck instead of replacing it. Mostly because it'd be hard to replace since it's Asian made = metric system = dimensions are slightly off standard.)
