Yeah, that's the nature of things. We should probably add a "ulimit -c 
unlimited" to the run script so we can always get a core file. Problems of 
this type that occur during "make test" but not when running the individual 
script seem to have a dependency on the memory pressure from other processes. 
(I.e., when "make test" is running there are more processes than when you 
simply run an individual script.)

In this case, it's most likely ITS#5733, which still hasn't been tracked down.
