Doesn't a SIGABRT (kill -6) force a core dump? 

I put this in my own code, but it still doesn't make a
core file:

  printf("Aborting...\n");
  raise(6);


Probably because your shell's init file(s) specify that the limit on
core files is zero bytes.  Use `ulimit' to change that to `unlimited'.


$russell@home~: ulimit
$unlimited

What else can i try?
