[Dbix-class] DBIx::Class::Loader needs testing

There have been a fairly large number of changes to
DBIx::Class::Loader trunk since 0.12, in response to a number of
lurking bugs.  The test suite has been re-done as well.  The current
trunk will become 0.13 soon, barring anyone coming up with more things
to fix.  Given the nature of the changes, I'm a little concerned about
unknowingly breaking existing users.

If you use DBIx::Class::Loader, please give it a test if you can.  Run
the "make test" stuff, set the env vars to test your database engine
of choice if you can (mysql, pg, ...), try your existing Loader-using
code against it, etc.

The current snapshot is available at:

http://www.dtmf.com/DBIx-Class-Loader.tgz

or you can get it straight from svn at:

svn checkout http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/repos/bast/trunk/DBIx-Class-Loader

Thanks,

PS - If you're going to test against the DBIx-Class-resultset branch,
be sure to use the very latest version from trunk - Loader is known to
fail on 0.4999_02 but works on the later trunk revs atm.
