A few more questions:

Are you using a special (maybe hardened) dynamic loader that is not
setting DT_DEBUG?

Have you tested minicoredumper on your system? (For example, with a
simple crashing program or by sending the SEGV signal to a program?)

If you send the SEGV signal to the reported program, does it always
result in this error?
