   Emacs dumps core with signal 3 when it you press the following keys

Typing C-z invokes the suspend-emacs function.  As part of doing its job,
suspend-emacs restores the special terminal control characters to what
they were when Emacs was invoked.  Then suspend-emacs sends the TSTP
signal, suspending Emacs.  There is a brief time gap between resetting the
terminal control characters and sending the TSTP signal when Emacs is
vulnerable to being killed by the user pressing C-\.

This could be solved by having Emacs intercept or ignore the QUIT signal.
There might be a good reason not to do this, but I'm not aware of one.

Incidentally, you can also get an interesting effect by typing "C-z C-z".
