Possible, but unlikely (I think this got fixed for 3.2 and 4.0 already).

Best way to test would be to install Tomcat 4.0 in a directory like

    C:\Program Files\Tomcat 4.0

on a Windows platform, and make sure everything still works correctly.  (I know that Pierre Delisle has an NT system at the office; I'm sure
others do as well.)
