I usualy have a number of swap partitions since the max size of a swap partition is kind of limited. I was thinking of changing it to do swapon twice. The first time early in the boot would skip mounting any swap areas that had kernel core dumps. Then after the savecore it could do swapon again to mount the rest of the swap areas. Either that or have swaping start to allocate space at the oposite end of the swap space than savecore uses.
