Custom Class loader no longer works in 4.0.3, but works in 3.2.2

           Summary: Custom Class loader no longer works in 4.0.3, but works
                    in 3.2.2
           Product: Tomcat 4
           Version: 4.0.3 Final
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Blocker
          Priority: Other
         Component: Unknown
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: mpetres@netcom.ca


One of the servlets uses a custom class loader that occasionally receives class 
load requests which it forwards to the parent object using the super.loadClass
(name,resolve) method.

This loader fails to load classes using super.loadClass(name,resolve) on 4.0.3 
when the class to be loaded resides in a Jar that is under the /lib directory 
for the servlet. The code works fine in Tomcat 3.2.2!
