That no longer works in Tiger as you discovered. Do this now:

echo "limit core unlimited" >> /etc/launchd.conf
reboot

Well, I can't get a core file generated to save my life!
I have COREDUMPS=-YES- in my hostconfig, and the /cores directory is world-writeable.

When I check ulimit -a, I get:
core file size        (blocks, -c) 0
...

but when I attempt to change it, i.e.:
> ulimit -c unliimited
> ulimit -c
0

It remains stubbornly at zero.
I"ve also tried 1024 instead of unlimited, no difference.

Does anyone have some insight into this?  Any suggestions?
