It is a feature... You see, it is the assumption that what you
serve from Tomcat is only servlets or JSP, so if you put
in your mount (mod_jk.conf or mod_jserv.conf) that you want only
the *.jsp and servlets served by tomcat, this is what you get. For example.
JkMount /examples/servlet/* ajp12
JkMount /examples/*.jsp ajp12
You can tell Apache to send everything in the /examples context
to Tomcat by doing:
JkMount /examples/*
or you can detail things, like:
JkMount /examples/servlet/* ajp12
JkMount /examples/*.jsp ajp12
JkMount /examples/catalog/* ajp12
JkMount /examples/customer/* ajp12
i.e., pass individual directories or even files...

I always copy the *auto file to the conf file and edit it by hand, and
then include in httpd.conf. This may be a bug, but as I said, I actually
do not dwell much on what Tomcat should put there, since I edit it
by hand without even paying close attention on what is there. In my
humble opinion, tomcat should not produce config files for apache,
and it should be like old times, when you had just examples. But at the
same time, it probably helps newcommers a lot...
