Well i looked through freebsd-java and didn't think i saw anything
relavant, but now i look back and see the post.  I guess that's what i
get for thinking :)

 I believe it is the exec patch (wait.diff). Is that the one right?

Any idea as to when patchset 9 will be released?
I'm glad i now know this is a bug in the jdk.  I took the precompiled
tomcat and used that and at least got me moving again.  Thanks for the
help, i'll try the "exec patch" out, and see if that fixes my other
errors. Keep up the great work fellows, and thanks again for the help.
