What do you think? Logistically it shouldn't be too hard to arrange things to cater to this approach.
As evinced by Bugzilla 5091[0], I always run unit tests separately from the rest of the program, and so fully support this motion. As others have pointed out, there are possible problems with cross-compilation, but all in all, I think treating unit tests as a build step rather than something to do with execution is a Good Thing™.
