Looks like thunderbird showed his best again and exchanged '&' and ' '. Also
there is a typo in the condition (checking for CRASH twice) and make
syntax-check forbids use of TABs for indentation.

Moreover, this would only protect virsh. It's better to have this check in
virDomainCoreDump() so that all users can get the error.

The following patch should fix these issues.

They don't make any sense when used together.
