null pointer of pindexPrev crash.

i use bitcoind to mine, and if BitcoinMiner() is started before ConnectTip(), pindexPrev will be null pointer, and bitcoind will crash.
maybe this fix is not the optimized fix, although i have test it on my gentoobox and it seems working now.

here are logs and stack:

Starting program: /root/harrywu/build/tmp/native/run-0.9.99/bitcoind -datadir=/root/harrywu/build/tmp/native/run/data -conf=bitcoin.conf -server -gen -debug -checkpoints=0 -txindex=1 -reindex

Do you need "set solib-search-path" or "set sysroot"?
