For packaged programs, feisty's apport does not *ever* save core dumps,
because /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern now points to a pipe instead of a
file.
Apport does generate core files for unpackaged programs if ulimits
permit. I'll move the check for SIGABRT down after the core file
creation, so that SIGABRT will generate cores for those programs.
