That is correct. And, no, there is no way for that to result in a core dump
unless you build a custom Go runtime that changes the behavior of the
"crash()" function in src/runtime/signal_unix.go. That is for the reason
explained in the doc string in that function: You would end up with a huge
core dump file that would probably take an hour or more to create. Do you
actually have enough disk space (> 128 GB free space) and are willing to
wait upwards of an hour for the core file to be created? If so then I, and
no doubt others, would be interested in hearing from you why letting Go
behave that way on macOS is sensible for 99% of people running Go programs
on macOS.
