I seem to remember seeing something about .jsp URL's (and perhaps all
those with extensions) not being able to have pathinfo's because of
how extension mapping is done.  So this might be according to the
spec.  The fact that they are turned into servlets is irrelevant, it
has to do with the URL.  You might take a look at the spec to see what
it has to say about it.
