According to g_tree_foreach() documentation:
"The tree may not be modified while iterating over it (you can't
add/remove items)."

A SIGSEV can be observed while running test-vmstate.

Get rid of the node removal within the tree traversal. Also
check the trees have the same number of nodes before the actual
diff.

It might be worth noting that this bug only happens now because glib2
remove their custom slice allocator and switched to using system
malloc.  With glibc + MALLOC_PERTURB_, malloc will find these kinds of
bugs.  The relevant glib2 change that causes the problem is:
