Yes, as I said.  My point is that sending us the core dump won't necessarily make it possible for us to get a backtrace; getting the backtrace on the machine where the crash was occurring, and just sending us the backtrace, would work far better (and result in a much smaller mail message - the backtrace is a lot fewer bytes than the core dump).
