i've spent some time with acid and i think the answer is no.

i wasn't referring to your reply to my acid suggestion on gsoc -- but
my question is related to what you asked about unit testing.  if there
is a way to call arbitrary functions in a program under acid's
control, then it should be easy to generate acid scripts to do unit
tests.
