For one use dbxtool. This is just a sunwindow interface to dbx.

For another, if you use it, as I do, remove your "limit coredumpsize 0".
This way, on startup, dbxtool will go immediately to the place where the
core dumped.

As an encouragement for learning dbxtool, I wouldn't want to program
without it.
