No. commons-dbcp supports far more than just pooling for the JDBC authenticator. The reason we do the renaming is to avoid class loading issues when users want to use a Tomcat-managed connection pool alongside an application that uses commons-dbcp and/or commons-pool directly.

I'm also curious, assuming JDK1.5 is used to compile - would the
tomcat distro work in JDK1.6 if dbcp is compiled with 1.5 ?

Yes it does. To be more accurate, I haven't seen any issues using the re-packaged DBCP on 1.6.

In any case - it kind of sucks to not be able to build following the
instructions ( ant download, ant ) - I didn't find any ref that JDK1.6
is not supported for build.

Correct.

If you want to fix this you could always port the DBCP build fixes from commons.
