I believe if you're using apache, making your config look like this works fine:

<Perl>
   use lib qw( /pat/to/catalyst/app/lib );
</Perl>
PerlModule AppName

Alias /application /path/to/catalyst/app/root
<Directory /path/to/catalyst/app/root>
   SetHandler perl-script
   PerlHandler AppName
</Directory>
