ok. i managed to fix the problem, but i had to edit to the torque
source.

Somehow the "mapBuilders" variable keeps getting screwed up and set to
null. I've checked whether it's null everywhere it's used now and
reinitialized it if it is, and now everything appears to work.

it looks like this is a serialization problem, and that the torque class
on my computer got serialized wrong somehow at some point during a
catalina restart. does that make sense? i don't even know why objects
would get serialized during a tomcat restart. is there somewhere i can
find out more about what is going on?
