Hi, I stumbled across this issue while writing a "RewriteValve" rule that redirects everything based on an HTTP header condition. This is happening in a development environment where no ROOT context is configured and no reverse proxy ensures that only valid path prefixes are passed to the Tomcat instances. So it is not a real production world problem, but the NPE made me skeptical. I don't know if there is an easy way to access the actual configured default values from the context.xml and taking into account the STRICT_SERVLET_COMPLIANCE setting. This would be the preferred solution, but the case is also relatively unlikely in production setups and my primary goal is to avoid the NPE.
