With the change from Tomcat 5.0.27 to 5.5 the behavior of installing an 
app outside of $CATALINA_HOME/webapps using the Ant deploy task doesn't 
seem to work. Well, at least not for me.

Tomcat 5.0.27 just created a context configuration file in 
$CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost, pointing to my build directory, 
~/workspace/tomtest/build

In contrast, Tomcat 5.5 copies the contents of ~/workspace/tomtest/build 
to $CATALINE_HOME/webapps/tomtest and no context configuration file is 
created in $CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost.

I'm still pretty new to servlets, JSP, and Tomcat, so I might be 
overlooking something rather obvious.
