Subject:  Bad core files with 2.6.19-rc2

gdb doesn't like any core dump file generated while running
2.6.19-rc2.  If I `kill -SIGSEGV $some_app_pid' and then...

  gdb some_app core

I get...

  warning: Couldn't find general-purpose registers in core file.
  #0  0x00000000 in ?? ()

But if I gdb attach to a running process and then kill -SIGSEGV
the process, it produces a normal trace without problem.
