This is your problem. You need to ensure that the "standard" SuSE magic
comments are included in the beginning of the startup init script you
use to start it, or chkconfig (and it's evil minion insserv) will do
exactly what you're observing.

Not only can it, it does. Every time you run chkconfig and/or yast to
install something, in fact.

It's a packaging bug, IMHO -- the startup scripts in the package should
have the right magic already included. Report it to Novell. 

Short term fix: take the skeleton init script, paste in the startup.sh
contents, and chkconfig/insserv it so that the SuSE startup process
knows about it properly. That will cause the problem to not happen
(until you upgrade tomcat, at which point, you can hope they've fixed
it).
