I've just hit a problem with this and the ASF's Jira instance. It looks
like Jira uses Apache Felix which turns Tomcat's Servlet JAR into an
OSGI bundle somehow but the missing directories means that fails. The
result is that Jira fails to start.

I'm going to revert the filesonly change. I'll look into explicit
excludes for the empty directories.
