Are you referring to your suggestion of using the broken_table_proto test? I had responded on IRC that that wouldn't work. I need to copy a file to the datadir *before* the server is started, not after, since the tests are verifying two things:
* A proper error message and disabling of the transaction_log module if a corrupted manifest file is present in the datadir when the server is started
* a proper startup and data_dictionary SELECT when a non-corrupted manifest file is present in the datadir on startup.
