No.

Given you have two different machines which are behaving differently -  
try to make a minimal app which shows the difference?

This should just be catalyst.pl Foo and then adding one 5 line  
controller?

Then you can (more) easily work out why this is happening / what  
upgrade causes this.

Alternately - if it doesn't happen in the minimal app - it points to  
something deeper inside your app :).

We can (possibly) help debug more given more info - like the startup  
and request debug - but with no other info I can only offer generic  
suggestions, sorry!
