Good to know. What about the next version of Tomcat 6? Will it also get
3.7.2 (or at least 3.7.1)? Or will it stay on 3.7.0 for the foreseeable
future? That's my big concern. As long as Tomcat 6 has 3.7.1 or better, it
should be able to compile JSPs for Java 7. With 3.7.0, it can't.

Just download ecj-3.7.2.jar from eclipse.org [1] and put it into libs
directory, instead of 3.7 one.

The next release of 7.0.x will have 3.7.2 in it.
