Well, obviously it's not any of these errors since this is their own test
suite... but done anyway, to see what kind of output we get:

    FILE *errfile;

    errfile = fopen("/home/vorlon/debugging-db.log", "w");
    i = db_env_create(&env, 0);
    i = env->set_encrypt(env, "passw0rd", DB_ENCRYPT_AES);
    i = env->set_errfile(env, errfile);
    [...]

/home/vorlon/debugging-db.log is created as an empty file.
