Subject: NPE when setting executor on AJP Connector

Hi,

I've just installed Tomcat 6.0.13 and noticed in conf/server.xml that 
there is a new Executor element - commented out by default - saying "The 
connectors can use a shared executor, you can define one or more named 
thread pools".

So tried and enabled it, using the same executor for both the HTTP and 
the AJP Connectors:

    <Executor name="tomcatThreadPool" namePrefix="catalina-exec-" .../>
    <Connector executor="tomcatThreadPool" port="8080" 
protocol="HTTP/1.1" .../>
    <Connector executor="tomcatThreadPool" port="8009" 
protocol="AJP/1.3" ... />

However I then get an exception when starting Tomcat:
--
May 24, 2007 3:14:34 PM org.apache.tomcat.util.digester.Digester 
startElement
SEVERE: Begin event threw exception
java.lang.NullPointerException
        at 
org.apache.catalina.startup.ConnectorCreateRule._setExecutor(ConnectorCreateRule.java:61)
        at 
org.apache.catalina.startup.ConnectorCreateRule.begin(ConnectorCreateRule.java:54)
        at org.apache.tomcat.util.digester.Rule.begin(Rule.java:153)
        at 
org.apache.tomcat.util.digester.Digester.startElement(Digester.java:1276)
--

The executor seems to work only with the HTTP Connector, not the AJP 
one. However according to the docs the standard AJP implementation 
should support 'executor' as well

  http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/config/ajp.html

Should I file a bug report?

Thanks

Mirko
