Good idea but unfortunately I can't confirm that openjdk-7 is
responsible. I downloaded the sources from

http://snapshot.debian.org/package/openjdk-7/7u71-2.5.3-2/

and applied Moritz Mühlenhoff's patch due to bug

https://bugs.debian.org/775044

and recompiled openjdk-7 from scratch. But tomcat7 still fails to build
from source even with this older openjdk-7 version.
