Thanks, Todd.  Here's the stack trace:

This is what I have in WEB-INF/lib:

commons-beanutils-1.7.0.jar
commons-codec-1.3.jar
commons-collections-3.1.jar
commons-digester-1.7.jar
commons-el-1.0.jar
commons-fileupload-1.0.jar
commons-lang-2.1.jar
commons-logging-1.0.4.jar
commons-validator-1.1.4.jar
jstl-1.1.2.jar
myfaces-api-1.1.1.jar
myfaces-impl-1.1.1.jar
oro-2.0.8.jar
tomahawk-1.1.1.jar
util-jsf.jar
xml-apis-1.0.b2.jar

It looks like the problem is with an incompatible version of log4j.   
I have log4j 1.2.12 in common/lib/ext.

I have one there too, and also commons-logging-1.0.4.jar in my
WEB-INF/lib folder. Everything works fine. Is there some
exception you are getting that might shed some more light?

What version of Liferay are you using? With the LEP 4.0 you
shouldn't
have to worry about the version of Myfaces LEP is using
since this is
segrated into a different classloader. You are free to put whatever
version you want in your WEB-INF/lib folder. I am using
MyFaces-1.1.4-SNAPSHOT and tomhawk-1.1.2 with no problems.

I'm using Liferay Professional 4.0 - Tomcat version.  I found
a commons-logging.jar (version 1.0.4 according to the
Manifest) in common/lib/ext.  If I remove it Liferay won't
start because some portlets die (including the main CMS portlet).
