These are private support classes of the Servlet API. They're still present, but they're file-private inner classes and thus no in the JavaDoc (intentionally).
I thought so, that's why I asked.
The class name you're quoting for them is wrong, by the way: it's javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet$NoBodyResponse and javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet$NoBodyOutputStream.
That explains it. As I said, I just quoted them from several newsgroup postings I stumbled across.
Your second guess is also wrong, and I wouldn't normally mention this but it's significant: there's nothing tomcat-specific (or specific to any server) in the javax.servlet classes.
It would by all means be bad practice and I would never imply that the tomcat developers worked that way, but since HttpServletResponse is not final, it could hypothetically be extended by a third party inside the same package. I just thought I might have accidently discovered a "sin of the past" ;-)
Thanks for your clarification.
