Don't be biased. Personally, I don't need something that'll run for 50 years without interference. I like Lawl better because it's sprouted from MC#, which I've always used.

I'm the one who develops iCraft, it does a lot and is more stable then MCLawl. Join us on irc.esper.net #icraft and we can help you out there.
And as the developer for MCLawl, I'm not going to make biased, opinionated assumptions in preference of my own software.
To the OP:
Try both, see which one you prefer. Myself, I host 2 servers and prefer to use MCLawl over all others for a multitude of reasons. The first being stability. The latest releases of MCLawl are more stable than ever, with servers running weeks on end without crashing or restarting or going over 200-300mb. The ability to update automatically, pass restart commands through IRC, etc all make remote management even easier should a problem occur. And with the automatic restart on error option, the server will run itself continuously without admin-interaction. If a problem occurs, the server saves the maps and player data, then restarts itself, avoiding any issues with the server being offline.
Updates are being released all the time with new features, new bug fixes. We are active in the community, have message boards with requests that are usually always implemented or a method is determined for doing what someone is trying to accomplish.
We also have a custom scripting feature which allows users to easily and seamlessly program their own commands and integrate them into their MCLawl server. This means if you want it to happen, it can probably be done (barring any client limitations), even if MCLawl out of the box does not support it. We have a community command repository on our message boards where community members program and release the code for new commands all the time, solving many features others do not.
As for big-name features for non-administrative uses, MCLawl offers Imageprinting, Hollow, Capture the Flag, Achievements, Custom Physics, Copy/Paste saving and loading, custom text file saving and loading, and many other things.
As for iCraft, I have never used it, so I cannot comment or speculate on the stability, features or functions that it offers.
