Alight I know believe I know the issue after making a very small app and
testing it under a verity of setups.  My simple app worked fine under
CGI::Application alone but once CGI::Application::Dispatch was introduced to
the mix it started acting up.

Turning on debugging showed the "[Dispatch] - Found cached version of URL"
message which got my attention.  Finding that message in the code brought
light to an interesting block that deals with caching and in it there is a
special case for when mod_perl is in use.  I have a feeling that a similar
case needs to be used for when FastCGI is being used since FastCGI's
persistence and CGI::Application::Dispatch's caching currently are not
playing nice.

My current work around is to simply disable the caching by commenting out
the $self->_url_cache(suppressed) line.

I'm noticing FCGI_ROLE is an ENV var that could be used to create a constant
similar to the IS_MODPERL constant and then what ever magic is needed could
be key off that.  I might be able to figure out the magic but I don't have
time for it this evening.

In anycase, I can provide my simple sample app and help setting up
lighttpd/fastcgi to anyone that is interested in looking into this issue
with me.

Thanks,
