It may be early to start bringing this up, but I recently created an
extension to catch crashes in C code and write minidumps:
https://bitbucket.org/briancurtin/minidumper. It's 3.x only at the
moment, although I'll be backporting within the next few days. I'll
have a look at how/if it works on PyPy once I get there.

(minidumper will likely be absorbed into faulthandler once it becomes
more complete, which is why I mention it)
