This patch seems to be kinda-sorta already half-present in Wim's
development tree.  Could you take a look at what's in 2.6.17-mm3, see if
any additional work is needed and if so, send a patch against that?

Then we can feed it all in when (or after) Wim does his 2.6.18 merge, which
is hopefully soon..

Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
