Hi,
It's slightly unclear from your message, but it looks like you are using 
dynamic version of the Unit Test Framework. This configuration was not 
portable and indeed was reworked. My recomentation is wait a bit for updated 
docs. If you are really desperate - try reading cvs docs - unit test 
framework compilation page (but nothing else - it's garbage).
