When I first looked at that code I thought I spotted something wrong, but the only thing wrong was me. I'm not much of a scripting guru, but leave this on the list. there are a few around here that can probably spot the problem. You might want to see if creating /var/crash/ helps. Beyond that, I'm outta my league.
