Curt,

Crow bar circuits used to be sold after market for suplies made by the 
open frame power supply companies like Power Designs.  You could do 
that, or you could place a shunt zener diode on the output of the supply 
rated at say 16 volts, for a 12 volt supply.  Fuse the supply up stream 
of the zener diode,  so that if it goes overvoltage, the zener shunts 
full current or tries to, and the fuse blows.
