OK, so after Al's encouragement, I decided to try a different approach.  I set
up a second sbbs directory, /opt/sbbs, and did a brand new install there.
Afterwards, I ran my script that exports paths under /opt/sbbs and starts sbbs.
 It came up without any apparent issue.

Then I created a symlink under the /opt/bbs "test" environment back to the
/sbbs/data directory in "production."  I did the same thing with the ctrl
directory.  When I refired /opt/sbbs/exec/sbbs, I get a segfault again...
26991.

From what I can tell, I have to compile a debug version in order to get core
files to generate?  Or will changing the limits.conf settings cause the core
file to be created without using a debug version?
