I'm doing the same thing and it works ok for me, but on a very different
platform compared to your list:

OpenSUSE 10.1
lighttpd 1.4.11 (fastcgi)
Vendor's perl-5.8.8
Cat 5.701
DBIC 0.07000
PostgreSQL 8.1.4

Specifically, I have a users table in my database called "users", I'm using
Auth::Store::DBIC for that, and I'm using Catalyst::Plugin::Session::PerUser
combined with a inflate/deflate subrefs to freeze/thaw session data into and
out of the users table.  The example of this that you see here in the
Auth::Store::DBIC docs:

http://search.cpan.org/dist/Catalyst-Plugin-Authentication-Store-DBIC/lib/Catalyst/Plugin/Authentication/Store/DBIC.pm#session_data_field

came directly from my running production code.
