Archive with simple jsp and bash script

Starting with 9.0.14 and 8.5.37, JspC seems to ignore the value of the "uriroot" (aka "webroot") property, as mentioned in post http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/tomcat-users/201901.mbox/%3C0317090c-2fab-e04c-1450-6b9ebe0beae7%40labkey.com%3E

This change breaks the JSP pre-compilation step of our build, and likely others that use the pattern shown in the JspC JavaDoc example configuration: https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.5-doc/api/org/apache/jasper/JspC.html

I've attached a .tgz archive that contains a simple jsp and a bash script that illustrate the problem.

The command line used in that bash script is: 

java -cp /usr/local/apache-tomcat-9.0.14/lib/jasper.jar:/usr/local/apache-tomcat-9.0.14/lib/jasper-el.jar:/usr/local/apache-tomcat-9.0.14/lib/tomcat-util.jar:/usr/local/apache-tomcat-9.0.14/lib/jsp-api.jar:/usr/local/apache-tomcat-9.0.14/lib/tomcat-jni.jar:/usr/local/apache-tomcat-9.0.14/lib/tomcat-api.jar:/usr/local/apache-tomcat-9.0.14/lib/servlet-api.jar:/usr/local/apache-tomcat-9.0.14/lib/tomcat-util-scan.jar:/usr/local/apache-ant-1.9.13/lib/ant.jar:/usr/local/apache-tomcat-9.0.14/bin/tomcat-juli.jar:/usr/local/apache-tomcat-9.0.14/lib/el-api.jar org.apache.jasper.JspC -source 11 -target 11 -d output -webapp webapp

Thanks,
