[Catalyst] Reusing application on two virtual hosts with mod_perl

[Ralph Meek]

Hmm ok that is a possibility, but i think using the CATALYST_HOME would be the 
way it's supposed to be. As a sort of hack I added the following to my 
'begin' handler:

if(defined($ENV{CATALYST_HOME})) {
    if ($c->config->{home} ne $ENV{CATALYST_HOME}) {
        $c->setup_home($ENV{CATALYST_HOME});
    }
}

It's still a hack but at least I can now use the env var in my apache config. 
I wonder if this is a bug or that it can be solved otherwise..
