Why let the core file be created at all? Commanding
    ulimit -c 0
in bash, or
    limit coredumpsize 0
in tcsh prevents the dumping of any corefile at all. These commands are
best included in the user's startup file.

But this still does not answer the real question here: why is freeamp
dumping core?
