Core file may still be created

When GemStone processes encounter fatal internal errors and terminate, they should only create core files if GS_WRITE_CORE_FILE is set. However, under some conditions involving multiple or recusive SIGSEGV, SIGBUS, or SIGILL errors, a core file can still be generated. This can cause disk space problems with large caches.
