Subject: Disable creation of coredump file

Hi,

I want to disable the creation of the core dump even
after set "ulimit -c XXXX"

I modify
include/asm-i386/resource.h
the data structure INIT_RLIMITS
the 4th elements(RLIMIT_CORE)
from
rlim_cur = 0, rlim_max = RLIMINFINITY
to
rlim_cur = 0, rlim_max = 0
But core dump still be created.

Thanks in advance.
gan

Undefining USE_ELF_CORE_DUMP from asm headers (like
include/asm-i386/elf.h and asm/elf.h) should disable core dumping.
