I am seeing sporadic core dumps whose cause appears to be a call to atexit(0). Maybe not, but the atexit data structure has a null function pointer in it when examined with gdb. This causes obvious problems when the process exits. The null pointer appears to always be at _fns[1], if that means anything to anyone. For the moment, I am going to put in a patch to ignore null function pointers instead of calling them, and see if my core dumps problems (and maybe also sporadic process hangs) go away.
