Very tomcat-specific and subject to change ;) But the 2nd approach is
much better, as I mentioned using ServletContext#getResource is a good
way to go. As I was reading the code, I could swear I'd seen it before,
and then I realized it's a paste from the log4j repository selector you
wrote ;) (BTW how come we haven't moved it from log4j-sandbox to log4j
for 1.3 yet?)
