Done. ( part of 3.3 ). I can back-port it into Tomcat3.2, but it's more
than a bug fix ( it changes the shutdown procedure ) and I'm not sure if
it's apropriate ( again, the rule used to be that only bug fixes are going
into the stable release ).
( if we decide to do so, probably it'll be a good idea to integrate the
other changes in shutdown )
