on master:

>>> df = DataFrame(columns=['jim', 'joe'])
>>> df
Empty DataFrame
Columns: [jim, joe]
Index: []
>>> df.to_json()
'{}'

mixed type will segfault:

>>> df['joe'] = df['joe'].astype('i8')
>>> df.to_json()
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

on branch:

>>> df.to_json()
'{"jim":{},"joe":{}}'
>>> df['joe'] = df['joe'].astype('i8')
>>> read_json(df.to_json())
Empty DataFrame
Columns: [jim, joe]

BUG: bug in json lib when frame has length zero
