What version of Tomcat are you using?

What are the contents of the changed file?  Can you post it here (obfuscate the 
passwords, of course)?

Tomcat does rewrite the tomcat-users.xml file during startup, unless you 
specify the readonly="true" attribute for the UserDatabase <Resource>.  
However, I've never known it to rewrite it with anything but correct XML.
