Be careful of what kind of drill you use, a conventional drill will exacerbate the crack, it causes heat and pressure on the sides of the hole. Use a step drill or one designed for plexy. Stop drill the end of the crack with the step drill and that's the best you can do. The new hole will spread the stress caused by the crack and should stop enlargement of the crack. This experience was gained by repairing many small plane windshields.
