Sounds good to me -- particularly the binary distro part.  I'd been meaning
to fix that for the Tomcat 3 package, but it turns out that
jakarta-servletapi isn't distributed separately any longer (and the
MASTER_SITES is all wrong).  The Tomcat 3 package would need a major
overhaul and update anyway.

On the other hand, IMNSHO, now that kaffe is capable of running Tomcat 4,
there's really no reason to keep Tomcat 3 around at all.  It's old, no
longer supported, and slow.
