Take a look at http://svn.eu.apache.org/viewvc/tomcat/trunk/java/org/apache/catalina/core/StandardContext.java?view=markup look for namingContextListener and http://svn.eu.apache.org/viewvc/tomcat/trunk/java/org/apache/catalina/core/NamingContextListener.java?view=markup You can see from those how Tomcat does this. I suspect you'll need to patch one or both of these. The createNamingContext() method in the listener looks like a good place to start.
