	I felt the same pain, and ended up implementing an alternate
daemonctl program that has external configuration file to define
env entries (among other things).

  http://rcfile.org/daemonctl/
  http://svalin.rcfile.org/daemonctl/readme.txt

	You can fetch the daemonctl-port-0.2.tar.gz file and copy
the port into your ports tree and install it from there.

	The tomcat-rc-script.sh can be used to replace the rc script
provided by the tomcat50 port.

cheers.
