One thing that bugged me for years in D is how difficult it is to get a useful core dump.

What version of compiler/runtime are you using? I've fixed this behaviour (fatal error if no exception handler is found) in v2.076: https://github.com/dlang/druntime/pull/1673 and the fix should actually call abort(): https://github.com/dlang/druntime/pull/1673/files#diff-6c3bc1200b51af9b16b902fd88879ca1R227

Judging from the output (dwarfeh(224) fatal error), this patch is not applied
in your runtime.

As for the core dump - the runtime actually calls abort (pre and post my patch, as it looks like). I'm not aware anything in the runtime handling SIGABRT, are you doing it in your application? Is your system setup to generate core files `ulimit -c unlimited` or similar? You should at least get in your stderr (not stdout) message that the SIGABRT was raised (and you did before IIRC, you've commented it on one PR).
