Please post this report to gnu.emacs.bug, not here.  (If you use the
command "M-x report-emacs-bug RET", it will do that for you, and will
also automatically add important information about your system.)

For core dumps, the first step is usually to create a backtrace with a
debugger by running it (the debugger) on the core files.  Please
include the backtrace in your report to gnu.emacs.bug.
