And that's exactly the way it's documented. Read about <Context>'s 
"path"-attribute here:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/context.html

In essence: in most situations the "path"-attribute is ignored (even 
documented as "must not be set") and the Context path is derived from the 
corresponding filename.
