Sorry, I used another email client and it put the text on top. No need 
to tell me about the list rules about top posting, I know, it was a mistake!

I also fixed the core generation thing. Apparently a ulimit issue. I 
will be back with a backtrace later. What is the typical way you share a 
backtrace on the list?
