You will need to debug the core yourself, not provide it to us.
Sometimes cores are specific to a person's system.

Please run "gdb /usr/local/sbin/smartctl smartctl.core" and provide here
the function call stack.  This will help determine if it's a bug in
smartctl or something FreeBSD-related.  If it's a smartmontools problem,
you will need to report the bug to them directly via Sourceforge.
