Just send it any of the signals which default to creating a core image.
Check out signal(3).  Sending it SIGQUIT with kill should work as long as
rpc.lockd doesn't catch SIGQUIT.  It would also be helpful if you rebuilt
the binary with debugging symbols.

   It can be argued that returning a NULL pointer when asked to allocate
   zero bytes is a silly response to a silly question.
