Tomcat forgets "allowLinking=true" setting when reloading web applications

           Summary: Tomcat forgets "allowLinking=true" setting when
                    reloading web applications
           Product: Tomcat 4
           Version: 4.1.24
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: MacOS X
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Unknown
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: rnewman@thecia.net


If I have this in my server.xml

<Context path="/foo" 
      docBase="foo" 
        debug="0"
   reloadable="true" 
 crossContext="true">
 <Resources className="org.apache.naming.resources.FileDirContext"
         allowLinking="true"/> 
</Context> 

Tomcat forgets the allowLinking="true" setting if
   (a) I edit the application's web.xml file, triggering an automatic reload, or
   (b) I use Tomcat Manager to Stop the application and then Start it again

After I do either of these things, Tomcat can no longer find any resource in the application if it has 
to traverse a symbolic link.
