[Catalyst] path_to() and symbolic links

[marcus]

That worked out.  I'm kind of dejected I couldn't get away with a work
around that would automagically figure out the application directory,
as we have three different environments (dev/staging/production), so
I'll have to come up with a solution to dynamically set CATALYST_HOME
depending on which server the application is running on, but that
shouldn't be too hard.

Thanks
