[ale] Tomcat install

[Grady Harris]

You really want to impress us? Now get Cocoon running on top of Tomcat in
Gentoo. Then tell me how you did it. (Oh, wait--you've installed
Blackdown--maybe that gets around the Xalan problem--maybe not.)

Can't remember for Blackdown, but for Sun J2SE, Gentoo installs binaries, after
you go fetch them yourself from Sun.

I went ahead and ran the install to see if it was an all-nighter.  Nope;
five minutes on a 1-GHz T-Bird.
