Well, technically I said that I'd rather not have a core dump (and especially 
when I thought core dumps and stack traces were mutually exclusive).  But you 
are right that I was implying that was going to be the default behavior.  I just 
remember back in my college days having my server quota filled up because of all 
the core dumps from my failed programs, and I thought of the poor user having 
his filesystem filled up by core dumps.

All is good, abort away, I think it's a fine idea.
