O.K. Now what's with savecore. It gets called from rc. I read the man page on
it and I still can't really figure out why it's failing. I get:
savecore: read: Invalid argument

I tried savecore -v /var/crash and got the following:
dumplo = -6928 (-13 * 512)
savecore: read: Invalid argument

Well a negative number would seem to me an invalid argument too. Any ideas?
