The core file will be useless away from your own system.

Could we see a stack backtrace from it, instead? (Please compile with
debug symbols if you didn't already.) Also, please run pg_dump with
query logging enabled (see log_statement in postgresql.conf) so that you
can show us the last few queries it issues before crashing.
