Costin, After my last e-mail, I realized that there is one build dependency on commons-launcher.jar in jakarta-tomcat-catalina/catalina/src/share/org/apache/catalina/startup/CatalinaLaunchFilter.java.
The good news is that Tomcat's main() has no runtime dependency on this class. It only has a build dependency because of the source directory that I put it in. I will move the CatalinaLaunchFilter class to its own separate package so that it can be easily excluded from the build if you are not using the Launcher in your distribution.
