There isn't a "the classpath" in Tomcat.  CATALINA_BASE, not
CATALINA_HOME, defines the path for the conf, logs, shared, webapps,
work, and temp directories.  So the applications are distinct, but the
same Tomcat code is used across all such instances - which is the intent
of this mechanism.

What known bugs in Tomcat itself?  The <Context> attributes
antiJARLocking and antiResourceLocking must be used judiciously where
needed.  I am aware of issues in certain frequently used packages that
seem to hold references to classes and cause problems with running out
of PermGen space on reloads.
