Was that feature changed in the 5.0 and later versions? My 4.1.x version
allows me to put files into $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib and have them
available to all webapps which are deployed in their own
CATALINA_BASE's. (Hmm... I appear to have TOMCAT_HOME and not
CATALINA_HOME in all my scripts.. That's odd.)

It sounds like TC 5 only shares TC code, and what David wants to do must
be done by either putting his shared libraries in
CATALINA_BASE/shared/lib for all his different projects or by symlinking
them all together back to CATALINA_HOME/shared/lib.

Any reason this was changed? I thought it was great just the way it was. ;)
