I probably cannot test *all* of them, or at least not without
good instructions on what to test and how, but I can try and

Indeed. I had to write a sysvinit script for Wildfly once, and
the current Tomcat script pales in comparison to that. Perhaps
I can look at how Tomcat is started and redo the init script.
