How can it be fixed?

I don't know.

I found the thing that caused this issue. The execute_transaction is removed in a commit in py-evm project: ethereum/py-evm@1992368#diff-2d5d99f4dd8df9b29c7486b27678f9fb

The replacement is apply_transaction method. Fixing this issue is easy. Creating test is a little bit confusing.
