If it is a rhetorical question, then you're not expecting an answer? In which case it would seem like your message is a hint to start writing tests for CppUnit in CppUnit...
But riddle me this, Batman: How can you use CppUnit itself to test itself if there is a bug which causes failing tests to appear successful?
Okay, okay, okay... That might sound far-fetched, but it seems to me that alot of obvious and covering testcases for CppUnit itself would selfimplode, since youre testing and relying on functionality at the same time...
So I think you'd need to write a chunk of non-CppUnit dependant unittests for various functionality until you have covered enough to start.

Here's a question that'll wrap your mind around a riddle. Is the CppUnit used to test itself? (more of a rhetorical question really).
