Websphere appears to be broken in this respect. See the last sentence of
the first paragraph in the Javadocs for sendRedirect():
If the location is relative with a leading '/'
the container interprets it as relative to the
servlet container root.
Note that the servlet container root is *not* the same as the context
root, unless you happen to be in the default webapp that has a context
path of "".
