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....

I'll jump in here, I use Gentoo ~x86 (a bit racy, but hey) and

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 :((
