Dan,
There are two cores because of a crash in one process followed by a crash when the other processes are trying to shutdown.

What's interesting is that the bt doesn't show useful pointers. If you have installed from RPMs make sure the kamailio-debuginfo is from the same build as the other RPMs.

Also, do the logs say anything? There should be a log entry from the kernel for the segfault/signal that says which module crashed (e.g. registrar.so) and possibly (hopefully) an error message just before that.

Jason,

I've tried multiple combinations for pattern but I'm getting only 2 core files ...

I don't think these cores indicate the real crash... I'd like to get some more detail on what actually happened? Daniel, can you re-create? Keep in mind that if your core dump config on your box is not configured to name your cores according to process id or timestamp one core will overwrite the other..... as a result you will never see the core that is the root cause. 

Which OS are you running?

if Linux, I use the following in /etc/sysctl.conf:

kernel.core_pattern=/tmp/core.%e.%p.%h.%t

It looks a little bit like a "double free".

You could try to disable the call to "abort()" in case this happens:
mem_safety=1
See: http://www.kamailio.org/wiki/cookbooks/devel/core#mem_safety

Kind regards,
