It is an unchecked cast but there is no way to avoid the cast so there
is no point the IDE flagging it as there is nothing the developer can do
to fix it. Eclipse added an option (Ignore unavoidable generic type
problems) not to flag issues such as this as of a recent(ish) version.

Yes, it is unchecked cast. However, the warning is pointless and
shouldn't have been generated in the first place.

The Tomcat 8 code base should not exhibit any warnings with the defined
Eclipse settings [1]. Ditto for FindBugs and Checkstyle with the
provided configurations.

The intention is to add additional checks over time although we haven't
added any for a while.
