Let me know if you get your fileserver process to run more that 24 hours
without it dumping core.
Here are the configure options I compiled with
--enable-bos-new-config
--enable-largefile-fileserver
--enable-supergroups
--enable-fast-restart
--enable-bitmap-later
--enable-transarc-paths
--with-krb5-conf=/home/tmmccoy/Kerberos/krb5_1.4.2/krb5/bin/krb5-config
--enable-debug-lwp (currently grinding away recompiling)
Any other recommendations?

I would reply that I am trying out, not running with the option specified.
And perhaps without specifying the option could be the source of the core
dumps.
Perhaps waiting for the stable 1.4.1 code release and the corresponding
Announcement README and documentation update maybe be the only recourse.
But I am more than willing to test it now, but I would like a clue as to
its purpose.
