Actually, the difference is caused by the fact that Catalina needs to do
the same casts as the web app does, so it needs to use exactly the same
javax.sql.DataSource class definition. It's not JDBC that is doing this,
it's the way class loading works in Java.
For most application requirments, Catalina internal classes don't "need to
know" about them, so $CATALINA_HOME/lib works great.
