This has nothing to do with Tomcat 4.1.x. It's due to a "correction" in Sun's JDK 1.4.x, see Sun's Bug Parade: <http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/bugParade/bugs/4361575.html> Based on the comments there, it's breaking code in many places and is a very unpopular change that I wasn't aware of until I saw your mail and did some research. Your choices at this point is to use a different compiler (e.g. Jikes or Sun's JDK 1.3.x) or place your beans in a package (which I recommend no matter what).
