"limit coredumpsize 0" was failing because /bin/athena/login was
calling pw_init() when adding people to the passwd file, which set the
hard coredumpsize limit to 0.  pw_init() sets a bunch of signal
handlers and resource limits to things we don't really want, so I
nuked that call and everything works fine now.
