I figure rpcbind is restarted because a pending socket activation
request remains in rpcbind's socket?

systemd will stop restarting the service if the start limit of the
service is hit, but until that point it will keep restarting it. You
may configure the per-service start limit with StartLimitIntervalSec=
and StartLimitBurst=.

That said, if you just want to temporarily block a service from
starting use:

# systemctl mask --runtime rpcbind

and then, to remove the block again:

# systemctl unmask --runtime rpcbind

If you use a system where coredumpctl is enabled you can just type
"coredumpctl" to see the most recent coredumps. You can also type
"coredumpctl gdb" to get a gdb instance on it.

If you use some other coredump manager (abrt?) you'd have to ping that
community for help...

Usually you should find it listed when you run "coredumpctl".

For this to work, sysctl should have:

kernel.core_pattern = |/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-coredump %P %u %g %s %t %c %e
kernel.core_pipe_limit = 0
kernel.core_uses_pid = 1

This should be default with a default systemd installation. You may
need to mask/unmask one sysctl file.
Check /usr/lib/sysctl.d/50-coredump.conf.
