Try the latest unstable cvs and see also:

Support for x86_64 is in a very early experimental stage (I don't have
yet a machine to test it, so I can only suggest changes and see what
happens).

You have to make sure your limits allow core dumping (ulimit -c
unlimited) and that ser is allowed to dump core in the working
directory (if you started it in the no fork mode), or in the dir.
specified in the -w option. Also core dumping won't work on linux if you
try to make ser suid to another user ( e.g.: ser -u nobody).
