So, no server, and no core.  I guess the next thing to do is when you 
get to this point, go ahead and break setup (just Ctrl-C).
Then, run start-setup with a high debug level e.g. start-slapd -d 1
If you don't get any useful information from level 1, you can use -d 
131071 to get an enormous amount of output.  That should give us some 
clues as to why the server is not starting.
