Well, you know what I'm going to do, I'm going to drop that

You can set environment variable to let Xindice know which port to use. 
See wiki.
   

Haven't found this environment variable yet. I have been using the 

   xindice <cmd> -c xmldb:xindice://localhost:8080/db
for a while, and it works just fine for command-line queries.
However, I just tried duplicating the main Connector declaration in
tomcat's server.xml, but removing the redirectPort attribute:
  <Connector port="8888"
      maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75"
      enableLookups="false" acceptCount="100"
      debug="0" connectionTimeout="20000" 
      disableUploadTimeout="true" />

Restarted Tomcat, and now the addressbook example app works just peachy.
Nice.
After quick look into addressbook I found that it always look for 
xindice in default location: on the localhost, port 8888. This demo 
needs to be modified to add collection url configuration parameter.
