For RDMD you can do:
version(unittest) { }
else
void main() {
    // regular code here
}

And then you can invoke rdmd with --unittest and --main to insert an
empty main function when unittesting. Personally I put in a stub main
so I don't depend on rdmd features like --main:

version(unittest) { void main(string[] args) { } }  // stub main
else
void main() {
    // regular code here
}
