tomcat 3.3.1 session bug

I have found the following bug:

create a webapp called "Test" (note capitalization)
in webapp Test, create index.jsp with the following line:
session id = <%=session.getId()%>

now try
http://localhost:8080/test
versus
http://localhost:8080/Test

refresh, the page

you'll find that "test" generates a new session ID each time.
where as "Test" has the correct behaviour and preserves the session ID.


is this a known bug?
is there anyone working on it?

-Tony


fyi: i'm running on win2k

It should be fixed in the current nightly.
