The _last_ thing to do with a core dump is send it to a mailing list. It's
completely useless to us, and is absolutely huge. A total waste of bandwidth
for everyone on the list.

Howver on your machine you can do:

# gdb -c whatever.core /path/to/bin/whatever

and then

  bt

to get a backtrace. *That* you can post to a mailing list. You may then get
requests to print the contents of particular variables.
