http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5 (See http://cat-5.ora-code.com).5-doc/class-loader-howto.html
this is why I can't reference any classes loaded from server/lib in my
webapp, the server/lib classes are loaded by the web application
classloader's "uncle", so to speak, the sibling of it's parent. so it
makes sense that no web application has access to the server/lib jars.
doh...!
