Hi Nigel,

I mentioned this in an email to the Catalyst-dev mailing list titled  
"Test::MockObject::Extends 1.07 breaks some plugin tests" where I said:

-----

I'm working on an internal minicpan to ease our installation of  
Catalyst and found that there is a new version of  
Test::MockObject::Extends which will die if a method is unhandled:  
http://search.cpan.org/src/CHROMATIC/Test-MockObject-1.07/Changes

-----

The line you've entered is the same as I what I used to patch  
Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication::Credential::HTTP.
