getPathTranslated - Bug?

I have a question re: the getPathTranslated method of HttpServletRequest in
Servlet 2.3 as it is implemented in TC 4.0.1.

Using Tomcat 4.0.1 (win2k) Standalone, the first access to the servlet I get
the path + the servlet name + extra path info. The second time I access the
servlet (same url) I get the same path returned minus the servlet name?

Which is the correct behavior (for containers) and why does TC not return
consistently?

1st time the result is:
    "C:\Tomcat_401\webapps\upload\HelloWorld\moreInformation"

2nd time (successive accesses) the result becomes:
    "C:\Tomcat_401\webapps\upload\moreInformation"

In both cases the url is:
    http://localhost/upload/servlet/HelloWorld/moreInformation?name=value

Thanks for your help....
