Are you running your program just after the "ulimit" line?

Like this:

# ulimit -c unlimited
# myprog arg1 arg2 arg3

Is it possible that your program is overriding rlimit definitions?
Does "strings myprog | grep rlimit" return anything?

SIGSEGV? It's not clear to me if your problem is fixed or not...
