Weird --globals behavior for my own global settings #60

Hello guys

mocha is behaving weird with my own global settings. When I add settings to --globals then no test is run.

How to reproduce?

In test/mocha.opts I have this:

--ui tdd
--reporter spec
--check-leaks
--globals utile, settings

in my express app I have this somewhere in my app code:

global.settings = app.settings;

so, when I run make test I get this:

> make test


  0 tests complete (3 ms)

Weird! And when I remove settings from --globals and run make test again, then it says that a global leak has been detected:

> make test
test


  pages
    index
      1) "before each" hook
      ✓ http results (335ms)
    faq
      ✓ http results 
    versions
      ✓ http results 
    clean
      ✓ http results (354ms)
    pages gone
      ✓ http results (102ms)
    non existing pages
      ✓ http results 


  ✖ 1 of 6 tests failed:

can anyone explain this?
