I have been saving the dumps, since I figured > they may hint to a solution. 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. TIA
