If your system will dump core files, they will in whatever directory
mythbackend was started in. Best thing to do is to add
cd /var/tmp
ulimit -c unlimited
to the script you are using to start the backend (before it runs
mythbackend obviously). This should leave the core file in /var/tmp.
If you are compiling myth yourself instead of running pre-compiled
binaries, add '--extra-cxxflags=-g --extra-cflags=-g ' to your
configure command, and recompile everything. That will give a bit more
info when you look at the core file.
