The specific error is here: >>> 1.9.4 is known to be broken (tag support is broken), >>> http://tomcat.markmail.org/thread/4zzooanqjk2fhbz2 https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=56641 I suspect that we can use zip downloads instead of tar.gz ones. Apache Commons Logging sources, Apache Commons Daemon binaries, Cobertura binaries all have zip distributives as well the tar.gz ones that we are using.
