Check your default resource limits (shell startup files & /etc/login.conf) and see whether coredumpsize is set to 0, maybe? If you build and run: % cat crash.c #include <stdlib.h> main() { char *bad = NULL; bad[0] = '1'; } % cc -o crash crash.c % ./crash [1] 16550 segmentation fault (core dumped) ./crash % ls /cores crash.16550.core ...do you get this trivial program to dump core?
