JFTR

[rocketmouse at archlinux ~]$ uname -rm
3.8.13-rt14-1-rt x86_64
[rocketmouse at archlinux ~]$ pacman -Si linux-lts | grep Version
Version        : 3.10.44-1

I still don't know what messages you don't get, however, I get messages
without editing /etc/sysctl.d/50-coredump.conf for e.g. pppd and the
graphics etc..

Currently the only issue on my machine is that at startup fsck is forced
again and sure, as always using journalctl is a PITA, but at least it
works even with an older kernel, than the linux-lts.
