Interesting. When I do an %ENV dump comparison between starting the 
devel server at the console and running it via t/*.t, about the only 
obvious difference I could exploit is that *.t sets the HARNESS_ACTIVE & 
HARNESS_VERSION keys, and console sets the CATALYST_ENGINE key. 
Obviously the latter isn't going to work when I move to mod_perl or Fast 
CGI for production, but presumably the HARNESS_* flags would be 
reliable? It seems to work for now anyway, but I don't see anything in 
%ENV matching class2env.
