Changes (by AlecBerryman):

  * keywords:  => hunit

Comment:

 It is still broken on Debian's haskell-hunit 1.1-3.

 Sample ghci session:
 {{{
 *Main> :m +Test.HUnit
 *Main Test.HUnit>  let f = TestCase (assertBool "foo" True)
 Loading package HUnit-1.1 ... linking ... done.
 *Main Test.HUnit> runTestTT f
 Cases: 1  Tried: 1  Errors: 0  Failures: 0
 Counts {cases = 1, tried = 1, errors = 0, failures = 0}
 *Main Test.HUnit> let g = TestCase (assertBool "foo" False)
 *Main Test.HUnit> runTestTT g
 ### Error:
 user error (HUnit:foo)
 Cases: 1  Tried: 1  Errors: 1  Failures: 0
 Counts {cases = 1, tried = 1, errors = 1, failures = 0}
 }}}

 Test 'f' should succeed, and it does.  Test 'g' should fail, but instead
 returns an error.

 I have not tested the patch.
