One thing I should mention is that dmd now calls a different function 
for unittest asserts than the asserts normally do, and it does not 
regard those calls as "terminating" calls. This means that the unittest 
behavior can now be controlled by adjusting the runtime library, without 
affecting the assert failure code.
