Probably not, given how much Tomcat has now removed / changed from the original. > For example, I gather that Tomcat only uses a small portion of Commons BCEL. > Maybe the Commons code could be divided in some way to reflect this need? I don't see an obvious way to split it without making the Commons BCEL unmanageable. Feel free to experiment if you want to scratch that itch. > There are probably other projects that just need the read-only parts of BCEL.

BCEL and Pool (and DBCP) are all handled exactly the same way in trunk (svn copy + package rename) already.
