You need to reboot successfully at least once. The kernel only syncs the nvram settings at shutdown since it has a finite number of stores. You are most likely running the nvram(8) commandline tool and not rebooting. The core dumping settings will not be honored (they are only parsed at startup) and the settings will not be preserved.
