If I were you, I would comment the following lines:

    if (!outFile) {
      // perror("CORE ERROR: cannot open Core Diagnostics file");
      std::cerr << "CORE ERROR: can't open Core Diagnostics file"<<std::endl;
      std::exit(1); //Note: do not call abort()
    }

in core_error(...), line 192 of src/CGALCore/CoreAux.cpp, and recompile CGAL 
libraries.
