0.92 was supposed to fix this.  

If they're not the same, you'll lose the benefit of Apache::DBI.
Basically it's not working at all.   (You can still access your
database, but you don't get the connection caching.) -- BUT -- this
may only manifest itself in the tests, because of how the environment
has to be faked.  So it is safe to use.

I've CC'ed the author.
