Jacob, Thanks for the reply. I may need some clarification as I'm a bit of a newbie when it comes to Tomcat deployment.
we are using struts and all the struts packages we use are in our app lib directory. I read somewhere that this is the preferred location. Is this wrong? we're not using log4j in the app itself, but rather commons-logging, jdom and sitemesh. Got your message regarding commons-loggins, do you know if it applies to these jars as well?

There was an issue like this with log4j. I can't remember the exact reason, but it was fixed with the 1.2.8 release. Anything that grabs hangs onto resources is going to be an issue. In the case of Struts, I'd make sure you don't have commons-logging stuff in WEB-INF/lib. Put it in common/lib if it isn't already there.
