Your system might not be configured to produce them by default, or 
they could be given a somewhat different name, or put in some common 
system directory where all of the core files get collected and 
analyzed.

The first thing to do is to make sure that you can capture a core 
file.  Do

   ulimit -c unlimited

in the same shell where you run GM.  Hopefully this will inspire that 
a core file is actually dumped.

You can do

   ulimit -a

to see the current settings.
