When there is no "common" tree (for whatever reason), we must not

Noticed by Dave O.

While this patch does prevent a segfault, it totally fails to recognize
any conflicts in the merge.  Reverting 36e3b5e produces an ordinary
merge conflict with some rename/delete conflicts, and others including
content related conflicts.  I'm not sure I wouldn't rather have the
segfault than the grossly incorrect automerge.

I'll continue debugging the triggering condition to see if I can
understand why the index is left dirty, leading to this NULL tree.

Thanks!
