It should work just fine. We routinely dump our production DB and reload 
it into our test server and don't get breakage. It's all about getting 
RT_SiteConfig.pm right. The settings that you are likely to need to 
change are Organization, RTAddressRegexp, SendmailArguments, 
CorrespondAddress, CommentAddress, WebDomain, and rtname. Or maybe just 
a few if you've parameterized some of those from rtname or Organization.
