Re: version(assert) and Phobos release unittest build

version(assert) is negated by -unittest at all actually:

     }
}

$ rdmd -release test.d
$ rdmd -release -unittest test.d
errr

That is so bad >_<

Aaaaaack!! :-\

And to add to the confusion and inconsistency, it _does_ still strip in- and 
out-contracts of functions -- see e.g.:

    import std.stdio;

    void foo(int i)
    in
    {
        writeln("In contract enabled.");
    }
    out
    {
        writeln("Out contract enabled.");
    }
    body
    {
        writeln("This is the body of foo.");
    }

    void main()
    {
        foo(4);
    }

which will output all 3 messages in normal mode, but only the "body" one when 
compiled with -release.

This is the reason for my original help request -- an in-contract was triggering 
an AssertError in regular unittests, but not in release-mode unittests.
