How do I let the segfault create a core? I used 'ulimit -c' to change
the core size allowed from '0' to 'unlimited' (I think...), but still
no core...

Output of locale:

$ locale
LANG=POSIX
LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8
LC_NUMERIC="POSIX"
LC_TIME="POSIX"
LC_COLLATE="POSIX"
LC_MONETARY="POSIX"
LC_MESSAGES="POSIX"
LC_PAPER="POSIX"
LC_NAME="POSIX"
LC_ADDRESS="POSIX"
LC_TELEPHONE="POSIX"
LC_MEASUREMENT="POSIX"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="POSIX"
LC_ALL=

P.S. Can anyone confirm/deny that the messages I attached in my original
email break an unpatched mutt install?
