If someone does make these changes to the csuite-shell script, please
forward them to me/the list.  I have had to clean up core files by hand
in the past and it can be a long process.

Currently in tshell we trap signal 1 and 15. 

My unix book lists signals 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 11, and 13 ...as generating a
core dump...  can we trap _these_ signals in the (t)shell and
automatically delete any core files generated? This would both save a few
messages to userhelp, reduce user quota problems and save disk space...

...and/or can we use the (t)shell to log non-standard (non-HUP) 'exit'
signals as an indicator of system health...
