That's because your environment is set not to allow core dumps. I have 
posted the details of how to set it up a few weeks ago, Please check the 
list.

Yup, unfortunately we are going to see a lot of posts caused by people 
using 5.6.0 as all major linux distros has this version by default.

BTW, I've installed Mandrake 8.1beta3 a few days ago (a release 
candidate, which is really great :) and it comes 5.6.1!!! So I hope that 
all new distros will be informed enough to adopt 5.6.1.
