All the D tests pass with Python 3.6.1 on Fedora Rawhide. Which is
nice.

I have a project (OK I'm doing Factorial in D, see https://github.com/r
ussel/Factorial/tree/master/D) that builds and cleans fine with Python
2. It cleans fine with Python 3 (after a Python 2 build), but will not
build with Python 3. I get:

|> scons_py3 --tree=all
scons: Reading SConscript files ...
scons: done reading SConscript files.
scons: Building targets ...
scons: *** [factorial_test] TypeError : function takes exactly 5
arguments (1 given)
+-test
  +-factorial_test
    +-factorial.d
    +-ut_main.d
      +-factorial.d
      +-/home/russel/.dub/packages/unit-threaded-0.7.11/unit-
threaded/gen_ut_main
scons: building terminated because of errors.

If someone can give me direction how to find the problem, I'll try and
make a failing test.
