WorkDirSetup is a module specific to Tomcat 3.3. I'm not sure if something similar exists in Tomcat 4.x. I didn't see anything after a quick search. You could implement your own LifecycleListener that could accomplish this or add it to your startup script if you wanted it a startup.
I'm not certain, but I believe Tomcat 4.x won't let you serve old JSP classes for which the JSP file is no longer around. So "cleaning" the work directory may not be as necessary.
