Ajit,

Are you executing the program "testUnits" and getting an error or are you
executing code that you extracted from that program? If the former, then
the package's unit-test has a serious problem. If the latter, then you likely
didn't extract sufficient context for the test (previous modifications to the 
variable "unitSystem" come to mind).
