I agree that having a /var/lib/tomcat6/lib directory that is just
ignored is very confusing.

However I would not change Tomcat behavior from upstream design and make
it consider two directories when looking for libraries. Not only would
that involve some heavy patch into bootstrap.jar, it would also
introduce a change in how Tomcat usually works.

I'd rather fix the confusion by removing /var/lib/tomcat6/lib and also
the lib subdirectory in instances created by tomcat6-instance-create.
