For the strictest definition of a unit test (testing a function or class 
independent of all other code) this is probably the correct way to do 
it.  For example, Mesquite's "unit" tests cannot be compiled on Windows 
if Mesquite is built as a DLL because the DLL does not export all of the 
necessary symbols.  However, if the test requires the rest of MOAB then 
a stand-alone test executable is probably a better choice.
