t/src/embed.t - TODO passed: 3 in optimized builds

[mikehh]

test 3 of t/src/embed.t has a TODO pass with optimized builds

from prove -v t/src/embed.t (built with gcc-4.5 - NO --optimize)

not ok 3 - Minimal embed, create multiple interps without giving 1st interp to Parrot_new  # TODO TT #1880 : Parrot_new requires the 1st interp created as an argument

the failed assertion - src/thread.c:1397: failed assertion '!interpreter_array' will not happen with an optimized build as --optimized builds ignore assertions.

I confirmed this tonight. On the same linux/i386 box, when I configured without any --optimize this test remained a TODO FAIL. When I configured with --optimize=-O3, I got a TODO PASS.

In d808617e14 I made this test fail in optimized builds by converting an assertion to an exception.
