test environment for studying crash of hexary trie

[mjfh]

why:
the persistent test case will crash unless in genesis.toBlock():

• pruneTrie is set false, or
• the directive "tdb.put(emptyRlpHash.data,emptyRlp)" is added right
  before the "for k, v in account.storage:" loop

Thanks, but this is not the problem. For windows, there were stale file locks which prevented the deferred removal of the persistent database.

There are segfault problems on Linux/i386 which I cannot reproduce on my machine .. but I am on it :)

But I realise that this might be a simillar issue on the Linux/i386. And yes, it haunts me too.
