Very occasionally between minor versions we make changes to the code
that converts JSPs to Java and correct operation *requires* that the
JSPs are recompiled. We don't do it very often but it does happen. We
try and do things in such a way that Tomcat handles this automatically
e.g. look in the changelog for bug 33453. That said, I *always* clean
out the work directory when doing any Tomcat upgrade.
