Work for me.  Different versions require different setups.  5.5 required 
log4j.jar
and commons-logging.jar in common/lib.  6.x requries you to manually rebuild 
their
custom logging framework to work with Log4j.  By default, it's hard-wired to 
JUL.
 So, all that can be considered "fishy".  I've never really had an issue with 
the
per-app logging when placing log4j.jar in WEB-INF/lib even with another copy in
common/lib.  What issues have you run into?
