Indeed, there's not :) I was working on adding a minimal
infrastructure only for these tests. Needless to say, if there's any
way whatsoever to avoid doing that, I'll be more than happy to go with
it.
In fact, I was hoping that this could go in without unit tests, but I
understand they're necessary. Any suggestions on a simpler way to test
these is more than welcome.
