So your app loads its dynamic data at 0x0805ceb4...

Which is right here and has a non-zero file size; looks fine.  But the
data itself may be missing.  Your error was:

Cannot access memory at address 0x4001738c

... which is right here and looks fine.  I do not know why GDB is
having trouble accessing the data from the core file, in that case.
Sorry :-(

Don't trust commands strangers tell you...

"kill" rather than "killall", sorry.
