Hi,
Hmm, it's possible that now that we've moved Tomcat's bootstrapping code
to also use commons-logging, the impl lib is needed on the bootstrap
classpath.  I'll amend the FAQ entry to also link to this thread and
give some though to updating the documentation-proper (as opposed to the
FAQ) on this issue.
