The problem is as follows: upon reloading a really simple webapp in Tomcat (5.5.12, Windows XP SP2, Java 1.5.0_04-b05) 5 times, there are 5 instances of StringUtils (or more precisely, their static fields) still in the memory (seems Tomcat uses a different classloader for StringUtils, but that is a different issue).
I've heard about issues that objects whose static variables are not null are not garbage collected for certain JVM / classloader combinations. Tomcat suffers from this as well and this explains why you find "old" instances of StringUtils in memory.
