The fix seems reasonable, we just need to make sure it doesn't touch some strange code path. Btw, can't we get rid of that |

This change makes eth_call semantics a lot less surprising. I'm pretty something will break, but let's merge anyway. |

…16999 (ethereum#20783) Prior to this change, eth_call changed the balance of the sender account in the EVM environment to 2^256 wei to cover the gas cost of the call execution. We've had this behavior for a long time even though it's super confusing. This commit sets the default call gasprice to zero instead of updating the balance, which is better because it makes eth_call semantics less surprising. Removing the built-in balance assignment also makes balance overrides work as expected.
