Well the readme said it may fail on mac osx because it tries to write to
/usr/share/java to store the libraries etc.
When I ran ant, the build didn't work, running sudo allowed it continue
(but from now on running just ant w/o sudo is fine, I guess it was just
initially to write to that folder).
Anyhow, I'll try the svn then thanks.

Just curious regarding the above command: you do not need root rights
to build Tomcat!
Actually you should never be using root rights when building, testing
and using Tomcat.
(The only exception is running it with jsvc service wrapper).
