Lucky I'm running Debian! :)

Doesn't tomcat set the classpath itself using the bin/setclasspath.sh
script?

I don't think so, they have the same group/other permissions as the
files under /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/appname

I haven't got a file like this. However, I did modify conf/server.xml to
contain:
<Host ...>
        <!-- reload servlets when .class files change -->
        <DefaultContext reloadable="true"  />
        
        <Listener className="org.apache.catalina.startup.UserConfig"
            directoryName="public_html"
            homeBase="/home"
            userClass="org.apache.catalina.startup.PasswdUserDatabase"/>
</Host>

- From what I read, I thought that this would be enough to get tomcat
server webapps from /home/*/public_html/appname. But no joy! :(

It appears to me that tomcat knows about those jar files put under
tomcat_home/webapps/appname/WEB-INF/lib but not those relative to a
WEB-INF directory like /home/*/public_html/appname/WEB-INF/lib
