Bug Description
To recreate:
1. ensure rabbitmq-server is stopped
2. make run and wait until output quiesces
3. try to access the maas web - a service down error is returned
What should happen:
- The front end should load but without longpolling functionality

Could you please paste the error you're seeing?
I'm asking because the front end should already cope with rabbit being down by disabling longpoll (and I'm seeing this behaviour on my local copy right now).
But we still need to make celery start a rabbitmq fixture when running a dev instance (I've removed the need to run rabbitmq when running tests a few weeks back). Right now, it relies on the system rabbitmq.
