4.0.1 bug with form-based auth and doing GET instead of POST?

In one of the sample chapters of Manning's "SCWCD Exam Study Kit", they say the
following:

Tomcat 4.0.1 does not handle the combination of FORM-based authentication and a
constraint on the HTTP POST method for a resource correctly. It authenticates
the user as expected but calls the doGet() method on the resources instead of
doPost().

I tried searching for this bug in the db, but I couldn't find it.  Is anyone
familiar with this problem, and whether it's been fixed, and if so, in what
version of Tomcat?
