I have download the nightly snapshot of v 4.0 and would like to install it
to my tomcat install of solr 3.5

doing so?

In my opinion, its never a good idea to overwrite files of a previous
version with a new version. 

The easiest thing would be to just deploy the solr war file into tomcat
and let tomcat manage the webapp, files, etc.
