Instead of the hack above, the following works more reliably.
1) Make sure you have the latest commons-logging.jar in your /WEB-INF/lib directory. (Actually, if you're having the problem in the first place then you probably do have the latest commons-logging.jar)
2) Create a commons-logging.properties file in your /WEB-INF/conf directory that reads:
org.apache.commons.logging.Log=org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger
3) Copy the commons-logging.properties file to your /WEB-INF/classes directory (this can be put into ant to copy automagically)
(optional 4) Patch the Turbine.java file with the following (this removes Log deprecation warnings):
