A defines some methods which need to be overwritten during tests, which is why 
I have a MockA.  B needs the same set of methods overwritten during its unit 
tests, so I end up needing a MockB which needs to grab the same overrides 
that were in A.

I ended up just redefining the methods directly in A (thus, now no MockA is 
ever created) within the unit test file and did some aliasing to make it 
work.  Thanks for the reply, though.
