What ports are you talking about? I'm using FreeBSD as my daily driver, never had a port core-dump due to this.

OpenBSD prohibits this except when code is run from a partition that permits it by means of a mount flag. Otherwise you get a core dump.
And all the partitions are largely an availability feature: if errant code fills up /var/log then /home is still usable.
I'm aware of that if no partitions are filled it causes an domino effect if not on its own partition. I have ZFS quotas configured so surely that mitigates the issue?
Handy to know though.
