Remy,
Looking at bug 13040 I did a bugzilla search and came across bug 11411. I am still thinking about bug 13040 but saw that bug 11411 could be fixed (I had previously closed it without looking at the source closely enough) without getting into the equals()/startsWith() debate that is part of bug 13040.
In the circumstances where crossContext is false and getContext("/") is called from within the root web application getContext() was returning null rather than the root context.
I am guessing I have done something stupid but I can’t for the life of me see what it is ;)
I suppose your patch merely allows for a shortcut, so it could be acceptable.
Rémy
