Actually, just to make things interesting, those *are* servlet
classes. We have both servlets and JSP's that use library classes for
various things. Currently, they live in WEB-INF/classes. One of these
years we'll get things sorted out a bit better.

Ok, so I created a jar file with the servlet classes and library classes
in it and moved it to WEB-INF/lib.
Didn't work.
I cannot put this .jar file in TOMCAT_HOME/lib -- each context / virtual
host will have slightly different bits in the servlets.
