I recently posted this on questions at .  Crdit for the solutions goes to Ceri 
Davies who pointed out that there is a line in /etc/rc.subr reading:

$_procname|$_procnamebn|${_procnamebn}:|"(${_procnamebn})")'

Which must be changed to (one line):

$_procname|$_procnamebn|
${_procnamebn}:|"(${_procnamebn})"|"[${_procnamebn}]")'

Are you two both using 5.4?  My 5.4 webserver has the first line 
in /etc/rc.subr, whereas my 6.0 desktop has the second.

Presumably the new rc script for tomcat was written with 6.0 in mind.
