Neundorf: well, the difference between mark_as_test and mark_as_autotest is that it marks it as a test. Actually I think that mark_as_test is in fact a bit misleading, because it's not marking it as a test, only making it build as a test.

About foo_unit_tests, I don't hate the idea, but then I don't think it pays off that much, if we go with that, we can just keep kde4_add_unit_test just as well.
