Install Tomcat6, then start it. Works fine.

Install libtcnative-1, then start Tomcat. In the catalina log, you'll see:

And that's it. Tomcat isn't listening on any ports, and startup does not
continue.

Disabling ipv6 seems to work around this, as described in

However, I want to use ipv6... and it's enabled by default.
