Thank you...!

No, these unit test were just written by hand while writing the 
corresponding pieces of code, and extended after a bug was fixed which 
they previously missed.

Or was your question related to actually running them?

and how does one do unit testing with GDC?  It works fine with DMD,
but GDC doesn't do unit testing when -unittest is supplied.

No, my question was not about running them,but on how that code was generated. I
thought they were auto generated using a unitest framework :). Your answer
clarifies everything. Thank you..! :-)

LOL. Goodness no. They're done by hand. I'm currently reworking std.datetime's 
unit tests, and it's very time consuming (since it's a large module with lots 
of tests). I don't know how you'd get a framework to generate what I want 
anyway. The fact that D has unit testing built in like it does is fantastic, 
but it is fairly simplistic.
