For Dcompute I define a unittest configuration that has a main 
that runs tests, and the (default) library configuration excludes 
source files in the test directory. It seems to work fine. 
Admittedly it is a little different to you usual package, and 
there are no test specific symbols and no unit tests, and I 
haven't tested anything that has dcompute as a dependancy.

Are you suggesting this will break users of Dcompute that run dub 
test in their code? If so that truly does suck, because regular 
unittests will not cut the mustard.
