Tomcat must have noticed my blog

... because it ruined my servlet redesign by crashing the server when a servlet calls `java.lang.Class.forName()`.

*Update*: Apparently tomcat is innocent and it is all my fault for causing an infinite recursion (by mapping
a single servlet to `/*` and trying to forward the request to `/WEB-INF/some-page.jsp`).
I'm a bit disappointed that a misbehaving application can bring the whole application server down so easily.
