Thanks for that info about the earlier bug in 7.0.26 Konstantin.

The work directory would have been empty when the apps started up with
7.0.27, it wasn't an in place upgrade from the earlier 7.x version. I
also specifically cleaned the app1 work directory while I was trying to
figure out what was happening.

It does concern me that there was a known issue that was fixed, and here
I am seeing this EL impl instance sharing between apps in the "fixed
version".

Mark's "Don't do that" in terms of loading container jars in apps
generally is a solution, but the trick is we didn't create the problem
intentionally. We got scuppered by a maven dependency and Tomcat didn't
protect us. Ideally bad behaviour of an app should not break the other
apps in the container.
