ps: for abnormal end allow core dumps (fix qualys bug)

Browse Source 
A Qualys audit patch, represented in the commit below,
added the _exit() call to our abnormal signal handler.
Unfortunately, that disabled the associated core dump.

This patch restores expected behavior of those signals
whose default produces a core dump file + termination.
