First of all, you should know that we have a generic GWT-RPC servlet which is mapped to all URLs ending with .gwtrpc and which looks up XWiki components. In other words, you can implement a RemoteService as an XWiki component without touching the web.xml file (i.e. without adding a new servlet mapping). See http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Component+Module for details about XWiki components. You can take as an example http://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/platform/web/trunk/xwiki-gwt-wysiwyg-client/src/main/java/org/xwiki/gwt/wysiwyg/client/cleaner/HTMLCleaner.java with its implementation http://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/platform/web/trunk/xwiki-gwt-wysiwyg-server/src/main/java/com/xpn/xwiki/wysiwyg/server/internal/cleaner/DefaultHTMLCleaner.java . If you still want to use your own GWT-RPC servlet then in order to have the XWiki context initialized you need to map the XWikiContextInitializationFilter to your servlet. Checkout web.xml to see what is done for "gwtrpc" servlet.
