Releasing memory on undeploy

Hi,

I'm one of the committers on commons-logging and am currently looking
into memory-leak issues with j2ee/servlet-engine stuff when undeploying
apps that use commons-logging.

I see the following page in the tomcat FAQ states that classloaders
cannot be garbage-collected in tomcat:
  http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/faq/deployment.html

Can someone confirm this is in fact true, and if so explain why?

Thanks,

Simon
