Public bug reported: I'm using Ubuntu 1204 for ARM on a beagleboard.
When I generate a coredump when cwd is an nfs mount, the resutling coredump has zero length. If I generate the same coredump on /tmp, I get a valid coredump. I can work around by setting corepattern to point all corefiles at /tmp, but this is not ideal as my beagleboard has limited storage available (hence the reason I'm using an NFS mount in the first place!)
