This however is a Gentoo packaging problem and not a user problem.

If you want to get tomcat working as quickly as possible - download it directly from
apache.org and IGNORE the gentoo packages.

If you want it to work properly as a gentoo package either contact the package admin/
Gentoo user mailing list, or fix it yourself.

My recommendation:

Do not install Java or Tomcat from distributions, always install them yourself -

A) Its easier
B) It works with no nasty side effects....

Looking in the Gentoo forums, a new ebuild for Tomcat had been released on 1st
December to overcome a similar issue (maybe even the same as yours).

Look in:
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-518653-highlight-tomcat.html

That doesn't solve the whole problem.
There're still some other unfree packages required, ie. sun-jimi
and sun-javamail-bin :((
