I found no ways to get the a core file in 13.4
I tried on 12.4 where it's OK   and compared both config

In order to limit investigation I use std C that throws a seg_fault

#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
 char *ptr ;
 ptr = "toto";
 ptr[2]='T';
 return 0;
}

compil with Geany (to get it as simple as possible) cmd:

gcc -Wall -g -c "%f"
gcc -Wall -g -o "%e" "%f"

executing does crash (as expected)

>./test
Erreur de segmentation (core dumped)

I did set and check the ulimit before executing

>ulimit -c unlimited
>ulimit -a
core file size          (blocks, -c) unlimited
data seg size           (kbytes, -d) unlimited
scheduling priority             (-e) 0
file size               (blocks, -f) unlimited
pending signals                 (-i) 63238
max locked memory       (kbytes, -l) 64
max memory size         (kbytes, -m) unlimited
open files                      (-n) 1024
pipe size            (512 bytes, -p) 8
...

I have checked:
- no existing dir/file/link named core before exec
- directory is   "drwxrwxr-x"
- exec file is  "-rwxrwxr-x"
- config files in /proc/sys/kernel  :   core_pattern  core_pipe_limit  
core_uses_pid   are set just like in v12.4 where it works

I have read again and again :     Ubuntu manpage : core - core dump file

I believe that something changed and provoque a difference in behaviour
from  12.4 to 13.4
