Another (simpler) solution would be to include "programs" with phobos that are
part of the testing suite. Not only would it cover things a bit more
"real-world"-ish then the "unitary" "unittests", but it would also cover the
public/private issues (you don't cover with unittests), as well as make sure it
still works outside of a "version(unittest)" case (we've had a couple of these
too).

Currently, the closest we have is "dmd"'s testing suite: I've seen more than a
couple of additions to phobos that passed phobo's test's with flying colors,
but *broke* dmd's test suite: Specifically because dmd's test suite is an
actual program written in D.
