Adding to the excellent answers you've already received[1]:

spare yourself upgrade headaches and avoid modifying Tomcat-bundled
files directly.  It's quite easy to write a wrapper script that sets
needed environment variables in such a way that catalina.sh will find
them.  For example:

[excerpt of wrapper script]
        ....

        . ${CATALINA_BASE}/conf/container.rc

        ...
        case $1 in
        'start')
                ${CATALINA_HOME}/bin/startup.sh
                ;;
        ...

[excerpt from container.rc]

        export JAVA_HOME=.....
        export JAVA_OPTS=....

-QM


[1] = for the archives: "set JAVA_OPTS in catalina.sh"
