Jikes with 3.3

I have set up 3.3 to use jikes with this entry in
$TOMCAT_HOME/conf/server.xml:
        <!-- you can add javaCompiler="jikes" -->
        <JspInterceptor keepGenerated="true"
			largeFile="false"
			sendErrToClient="true"
			useJspServlet="false"
			javaCompiler="jikes"
			/>

I have found that jikes requires either a JIKESPATH or CLASSPATH
including $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/rt.jar in order to compile.  Setting
CLASSPATH before running the tomcat start script was not enough.  I had
to put a symlink to that jar file in the $TOMCAT_HOME/lib/container
directory.  Is this the recommended procedure?
