The only way to disable stackdumps right now is to use the respective
setrlimit(RLIMIT_CORE, ...) call within the application itself.  It's
not one of the variables propagated to any child process.

However, that shouldn't be too hard to change, we just have to move the
internal variable keeping track of this value, rlim_core, into the
cygheap.

Chris?  That should be all, right?
