Howdy,
Do you really want to run as root? Or do you want to run tomcat on port
80 on a unix system?

If it's the latter, tomcat ships with commons-daemon
(http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/daemon) which allows you to run
listening to port 80 on unix system. I could swear we have a specific
how-to on the issue, but you might just have to settle for the daemon
docs for now.
