Heh, well, that's exactly what happened with David's and my local build! 
That's why I'm quite puzzled that it behaves differently on the 
cruisecontrol build!

After some thinking, I came to the conclusion that it might be better to 
move the tomcat SSL setup step from configure to build deploy, because 
this would make our build process symmetric with regard to the classic 
UNIX build process (i.e. configure && make && sudo make install), where 
configure only performs local modifications, and make install (in our 
case: build deploy) might require superuser privileges (which the tomcat 
SSL setup step might require, if tomcat is located in a protected area).
