other contracts to get around this lack, I think that it would be nice 
to be able to test them in the postcondition code, so that all of the 
tests for the functions are in the same place.

Are you talking about testing the effects of a function, not just the 
result?  That might be better tested in a unittest function that runs 
the function many times with different inputs and then checks the 
result.  I think (not 100% sure) that you can defined multiple unittests 
in a single module; I would write the unittest right next to the 
function declaration.
