I think the problem with the above is that the DefaultServlet does not
include the <url-pattern> when retrieving static resources, including
directory listings. Consequently, the desired directory is never
actually found, resulting in the 404 status.

> <servlet-mapping>
>   <servlet-name>MyListing</servlet-name>
>   <url-pattern>/myappdir/</url-pattern>
> </servlet-mapping>

Try changing the <url-pattern> above to just a single slash; this should
get you the listings you need, although it does open up all of the
directories of your app that don't have welcome files and aren't under
WEB-INF. If you really want to give listing access to only a select set
of directories, you may have to place them in a separate webapp.
