I agree with the first part, not the second. In my experience, the case of one webapp per container is common (not to mention recommended by some people, for security and other considerations). In that case, I'd say it's not only fine but a good idea to put the log4j core and any optional modules in /WEB-INF/lib. If you're deploying your app in a .war file to heterogeneous servers, this is easier and more portable than putting the log4j files in the (non-standard) common library location in each server.
