Probably you'd be able to do it but if there aren't actual developers
using Windows or Mac OS X, then I guess your approach might be fine
for them.

The developers, however, should run their own test servers. There's no
need to be paranoid about dependencies version. Just using the same
Catalyst, DBIx::Class (or whatever ORM you use) and templating system
version should be safe enough. Their dependencies shouldn't really
matter (if it does, you'd have probably found a bug in one of those
modules).
