Nagios coredumps

The daemon_dumps_core config option is really nifty (although redundant 
since all systems with RLIMIT_* definitions have ulimit as well), but 
unfortunately it's slightly broken. SIGSEGV is still handled by 
sighandler, the daemon still does chdir("/") and non-daemon mode doesn't 
dump core by default.

The attached patch takes care of it (and also sets it to TRUE by 
default, a beta release should dump core if you ask me), and forces 
coredumps if any of the DEBUG macros are defined, which is most likely 
preferrable.

Cheers
