Well the key pitfall to manouver (and I quote from 
/bodington/docs/install/quickstart/Readme.txt here!) is:

- Tomcat 5.5 -
	
	Much work has gone into Tomcat 5.5 to enable it to run with just a JRE.
	Bodington currently requires the tools.jar (containing the javac java
	compiler), from the JDK, as this is used to compile the templates. If 
Tomcat
	is running, stop it and then perform these steps according to your 
platform.
	
	* Windows: From the 'Start' menu choose Programs -> Apache Tomcat 5.5 ->
	Configure Tomcat. In the dialog that appears, select the 'Java' tab. 
Append
	;<path to jdk>\lib\tools.jar to the entry in the 'Java Classpath' box 
(so if
	you installed the JDK in C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0 you would 
append the
	string ;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0\tools.jar). Click on OK and you can
	restart Tomcat from another tab on the same dialog.
	
	* Linux: Open $CATALINA_HOME/bin/setclasspath.sh in a text editor and add
	$JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar to the CLASSPATH, e.g.:
	
	CLASSPATH=$JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar

Other than that, there's nothing special to be aware of as far as I know (?)
