The dump is an AOLserver/BSD problem - under Linux, Solaris etc you get error messages without core dumps. I'd report this to the AOLserver folk as I'm sure they'll want to know about it.
As far as the bm_list problem, Janine Sisk at furfly.net had exactly this problem a few days ago. She told me how she got around it but I didn't pay attention. I'll e-mail her and ask her to post here with her solution.
