Make sure your shell isn't limiting core files to size 0 (effectively
disabling core dumps).  For bash, ulimit -c unlimited.  tcsh does it slightly
differently.  You still compile exactly the same way.

Most of it probably isn't useful and makes for a mess to look through, when
the developer would typically prefer to know precisely where "it went wrong".
