Bug#402603: tomcat5.5: blocks on startup until log pipe is read

This was mostly an issue on an overloaded system, I think. Not sure what was 
going on, but the init script would never succeed in stopping Tomcat until 
the timeout elapsed.

The second JVM invocation is the "java" call in "catalina.sh stop". AFAICT it 
involves initalizing a new Catalina instance (class loaders, config file 
parsing, etc) and then just connecting to the running instance on the 
listening socket and telling it to shutdown - quite a waste of cycles.
