Question

Why is this in the jakarta-tomcat-4.0/build.xml:

  <property name="servlet.home"     value="../jakarta-servletapi-4/dist"/>

If you comment out the servlet.home in the build.properties, you still can't
build the thing because the catalina/build.xml file is executed with the
wrong relative root and you are still missing the servlet.lib and
servlet.jar properties (because commenting them out in the build.properties
file is necessary because servlet.home isn't there), so it renders the above
property useless.
