Its beeing loading, because you tell Catalyst to load it. The new  
Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication preferes to load its own stores and  
credential-modules, so removing them from the Plugin list is a good  
idea.

(
use Catalyst qw/Debug ConfigLoader Static::Simple
                     Session
                         Session::State::Cookie
                         Session::Store::FastMmap
                     Authentication/;

might be what you are looking for)
