I found a solution...though I still am not sure of why it failed before. 
Instead of hard coding CATALINA_HOME and JAVA_HOME into the various 
shell scripts, I added bin/setenv.sh and used export JAVA_HOME and 
export CATALINA_HOME there. Combined with "classic" compiler setting (I 
was trying this before it didn't help without the setenv.sh) it now 
works. In reality it currently has the settings in all of the .sh files, 
I have not tested after removing it from those, but the magic seems to 
be setenv.sh, it seems it propagates the environment in some way that 
the same export statements fail to do from the other files:

#!/bin/sh

export JAVA_HOME="/opt/jdk1.5.0"
export CATALINA_HOME="/usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.30"
