Don't ever, ever, ever set CLASSPATH for Tomcat; you will confound the 
classloader design and end up with all sorts of ClassNotFoundExceptions.  It 
will likely also be impossible to reload webapps without restarting the entire 
server.

The servlet spec states that jars are to be placed in WEB-INF/lib, so that's 
what Tomcat implements; if the developer wants something beyond that, a custom 
classloader is what's needed.
