I haven't got a core dump, how do I set linux to generate them?

Could it be that I've got a 64-bit machine? That should have been one of
the first things to come to mind.  If you are running 32-bit then it seems
likely that one of our FFI bindings isn't using the proper C type.

I'm running debian etch, fwiw.

Yes, I've tried a clean build.  I'm trying now with a freshly gotten source
tree (in case there's a bug in our make clean target).
