g77 core dump

I use g77 with FreeBSD 4.9 and sometimes I get core dumps which I don't
want. With big programs it takes 10s of seconds to complete the dump.
I've tried recompiling without -g, but that doesn't seem to prevent the
dumps.

Is there an easy way to prevent dumps?

The best way is to fix the bug which is causing them.  Since you have
the
core dump, use gdb to find the line of code which is causing the
problem:

So now you want to write costive code (OTOH, you've hit the jackpot in
landing head first in c.l.f., whose most vocal and vacuous utter from the
imprimatur of the potty while playing with their standard issue)? Like your
Mom presumably taught you, you have clean up your own mess.
