"goto end" should not bypass the "Backward compatibility with
core_uses_pid" code, move this label up.

While at it,

- It is ugly to copy '|' into cn->corename and then inc
  the pointer for argv_split().

  Change format_corename() to increment pat_ptr instead.

- Remove the dead "if (*pat_ptr == 0)" in format_corename(),
  we already checked it is not zero.
