Time to look around for *.core files....  /etc/daily will do this for
you if it's run every night and if "find_core=yes" is set in
/etc/daily.conf (or by implication in /etc/defaults/daily.conf).

You can do it manually too (this more or less cut & pasted from /etc/daily):

  find / \( ! -fstype local -o -fstype rdonly -o -fstype fdesc \
	-o -fstype kernfs -o -fstype procfs \) -a -prune -o \
	-name 'lost+found' -a -prune -o \
	\( -name '*.core' -o -name 'core' \) -a -type f -a -print | \
  egrep -e '\.core$|/core$'

Let us know what you find (and what release of NetBSD you're running).
