I think you can just use CATALINA_HOME and CATALINA_BASE. Based on your post, it sounds like you have /usr/local/tomcat1, /usr/local/tomcat2, and /usr/local/tomcat3 which is probably overkill. Though my guess is it's not worth the trouble at this point to reverse what you've done if it is all working.
See item 4: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/RUNNING.txt Thanks for posting your configuration, I'm sure it will help others out there with the same environment.
