I've also been getting this error and it seems to be a basic problem with 
running Tomcat 4 with JDK 1.2.

Searching through the tomcat-user list showed a number of people were reporting 
this error. Some people seem to be able to resolve the problem with the 
JAVA_COMPILER=NONE fix. However, the actual root of the problem was pointed out 
as being a bug in java:
http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/bugParade/bugs/4776385.html

The suggested workaround of using the hotspot VM seems to have worked for me. 
To fix it on the Tomcat site would require compilation in 1.3 or 1.2 instead of 
1.4, which is probably not feasible. Maybe this could be added to the Tomcat 4 
FAQ?
