You could modify the source and add another dump of the original
exception (say, to stdout). That way, if it does happen again, you'll at
least see the root cause.

No, it sounds like that might be a rarely-seen bug in Tomcat since it
happens only during context reload while a long-running request is in
progress. If you can build a simple test case, attach it to a new BZ
entry and we'll see about getting it fixed.
