Yes, certainly "kill -SEGV ..." will work. But that may confuse other readers into thinking an actual SEGV happened. Other less dramatic signals like ABRT, URS1, USR2 may work but it depends on the program and whether the authors are handling those internally (which means a core may not get generated).
