 I'm probably being thick here, but what has ulimit got to do with 
 whether I get a core dump or not?

 if 'ulimit -c' is 0, then no core dump os generated, which is probably
 the setting that you have.

+I always specifically pass -g to CFLAGS when I run configure (ie
+"CFLAGS=-g ./configure --prefix=/blah/blah").  I don't know if the
+package binaries have debug symbols.
+
+Looking at 1.1.13.2, it's asserting when trying to delete a mutex. 
+I'm guessing that thr_ret == EBUSY, which means someone has tried to
+lock it.  That suggests a race condition where the handle reference
+has dropped to 0 (so we're deleting the handle and it's mutex) but
+another thread has just tried to use it.  1.1.13.2 is a bit old, and
+lots has changed in the code since then. If you can reproduce this
+problem with 1.1.13.latest I will try and narrow it down.
