This all fits into the threads issue theory.
Tomcat maintians a reference count for each session which is increased at the
beginning of a request and decreased at he end of the request.

If - for whatever reason - this reference count does not reach zero after all
requests have finished (e.g. because one thread was increasing while another was
decreasing, or an exception occurred which is not propably handled or... )
tomcat will not invalidate the session because it thinks there is still some
request currently running (which basically is a good thing. I do generally NOT
want my session to expire while a request is still running: e.g. a large 
download )

But this is still only a theory - I need to find a few free minutes to implement
a test case...
