You can take a look at the actual core dump by using strings
$ strings core |less
will do the trick.
Also, if you want to try and figure out what's going on with your program,
use the strace program
$ strace buggy_program
Of course, don't start running programs just because some weirdo on a
mailing list says so, read the man pages.
Hope this helps,
