logfetch broken

[Dominique Frise]

Hi,

logfetch of today's snapshot (4.2-RC-20060712.1) eats a lot of CPU while 
blocking the rest of local tests.

last pid:  8946;  load averages:  1.00,  0.54,  0.60                   11:11:38
318 processes: 314 sleeping, 2 running, 2 on cpu
CPU states: 39.5% idle, 55.9% user,  1.2% kernel,  3.5% iowait,  0.0% swap
Memory: 4096M real, 1814M free, 1686M swap in use, 17G swap free

How can I force it to generate a core file?
