[PATCH 1.3] fix buglet in the 1.3.30-dev prctl() logic

The buglet was that prctl() was issued always when available, when goal (to be 
consistent with httpd 2.x) was to only issue it if admin has coded 
CoreDumpDirectory.  The buglet was due to a misunderstanding in the use of 
ap_coredump_dir[].

ap_coredump_dir_configured is not considered part of the API so the declaration 
is not decorated with API_VAR_EXPORT and it is not in the exports file for AIX.
