Coredump when program run as root?

[Ralf Hildebrandt]

I found this while trying to find out why squid doesn't produce a core
file:

Most UNIX variants disable core dumps in programs that have changed their
uid or euid during operation.  This includes Solaris and Linux.

Well, squid does exactly that. How can I still get a coredump? I really
need one. Kernel 2.6.11.7
