How can I reliability detect whether my Azure application is running in development fabric and not in 'the cloud' ?

RoleEnvironment.IsAvailable is true for both. I want something that is true in only one case.

I'm asking this because I want users of my library to be able to use my library for free in dev fabric. Hence manually putting seperate identifier or flag in config file and keeping two configs for dev and deploy is not feasible.
