[antlr-interest] gunit bug in parsing expected string values?

I'm trying to use gunit on my AST-generating grammar.  I'm new to this so 
started small. 

literal:
<<
123
>> -> (LITERAL 123)
<<
"123"
>> -> (LITERAL "123")

The first test passes, but the 2nd fails with the message  ' testing rule 
literal expected:<(LITERAL 123)> but was:<(LITERAL "123")>'.  This looks 
like a bug in gunit's parsing of the expected string value.  Am I doing 
something wrong, or is there a workaround?  Thanks.
