I'm trying to induce the foomatic-rip program to generate
a core file I can look at to see why it crashes (my
messages log says it is segfaulting). I've put
this in the /etc/init.d/cups script:

	DAEMON_COREFILE_LIMIT="unlimited"
	export DAEMON_COREFILE_LIMIT
	ulimit -c unlimited

but no core files appear :-(. Anyone know the
magic voo-doo to get things started from services
to make core files?
