We had tomcat 7 installed and were using symbolic links. A developer had
apparently allowed this via allowLinking set to true in a context.xml file
I am trying to migrate to tomcat 8.0.9 and this no longer works. In fact, I
get warnings in the log.

org.apache.catalina.startup.SetContextPropertiesRule.begin
[SetContextPropertiesRule]{Context} Setting property 'allowLinking' to 'true'
did not find a matching property.
Are symbolic links no longer supported, or is there an alternate way to enable
them? It's a big issue if they are not so all help is very much appreciated.
