It doesn't really matter. You just need to make sure that your "users"
can read the default config files -- especially conf/web.xml and
conf/tomcat.xml which usually shouldn't be modified from their
defaults anyway.

I've always been irritated that the conf/ directory is only readable
by the owner in the tarball. Maybe I'll agitate to get that changed,
and only protect conf/server.xml and conf/tomcat-users.xml in that way.
