No way to get a core file even with  ulimit -c unlimited.

I use Gentoo and the kernel logs are in /var/log/kern.log

I could not figure out any common request.

So I end up googling "gentoo varnish" and it appears that the Gentoo 
team had released a varnish-2.0.4-r1 package and marked unstable 
varnish-2.0.4 and 2.0.5 gentoo packages. So I installed the r1 package 
yesterday and I didn't get any more segfault since I restarted varnishd.

Thanks for your help and best regards
