If a webapp wants to use a DB, it is up to the maintainer of that
webapp package to decide which DB's s/he is going to support. I'd
guess that I would simply link all those JDBC libraries which are in
main (actually, I probably need to do this when JSPWiki 2.4 comes
out), but some other maintainers might take a different approach. But,
still, this is not a Tomcat5 problem.
