Have you disabled the ServletInvoker request interceptor in your server.xml file? Basically, old versions of JServ and Tomcat supported a URL of /servlet/fully.qualified.classname as a method to call servlets without setting up explict aliases. This isn't part of the servlet spec, but its still there to be backward compatible. Basically it looks for anything like /servlet/ and tries to run it. Also, there is another message on this same thread that talks about the Apache end, of which I know very little.
