The coredump is due to bugs in the rman command (which is installed by
the imake port, believe it or not).  I submitted a bugreport on it in
July, and hopefully it will be in Xfree86 4.4.0.  Installing the
textproc/rman port may mask the bug until then, or you can drop this
file into ports/devel/imake-4/files and rebuild imake.
