The solution Christopher and Dave discuss above can be handled with this in
the Apache httpd.conf file:
RewriteRule ^(.*);jsessionid=.*$ $1
This strips the session ID from anything that the HTTPD server is handling,
although it should still get passed through the proxy. To be honest, our
apps depend on cookies for other reasons so if URL rewrite sessions didn't
work, we might never notice.
The fact that your proxy config is not correctly brokering some URLs over to
the servlet container would depend on how your proxy config is set up; I'm
not very experienced in actally setting this up, but my diagnosis is
correct, then the Struts mailing list is not the best place for the question
anyway...

For me, this strategy is only necessary when I want Apache httpd to
serve static content that has an encoded jsessiond in the URL. Anything
that gets passed-through to the app server (Tomcat in my case) is
handled correctly.
Use of mod_rewrite is only necessary when Apache httpd incorrectly
includes the ";jsessionid" as part of the filename, and therefore fails
to locate "some-static.html;jsessionid=ABCDEF" in the filesystem.
mod_rewrite can be used to remove the jsessionid, allowing Apache httpd
to correctly locate the static resource on the disk.
