If memory serves, those directives are to help automatically generate the necessary apache-related JK config stuff. (When using mod_jk to connect tomcat to apache, you need to add some stuff to the apache config file.) You might notice an extra file there, perhaps called something like mod-jk.conf (and not sure if it generates the workers.properties), which supposedly can be included (directly or indirectly) in the apache config file. I say "supposedly" because I seem to recall that the config stuff it generated, while certainly helpful, wasn't always 100% complete/correct, and usually needed to be modified a bit to work.
