I cannot reproduce this issue in my local 4.2.a instance.

Is your shared/lib directory included in Tomcat's shared.loader value in 
catalina.properties? The Alfresco installer sets this but if you are using a 
vanilla Tomcat you may need to set it manually, e.g.

shared.loader=${catalina.home}/shared/classes,${catalina.home}/shared/lib/*.jar

I discovered this morning that 4.2.a does not update the
catalina.properties file (common.loader string). Therefore, all the jar
files in the lib directory were being missed. After updating the settings
and restarting the server, it worked.

I was trying to post back to the "defect" the resolution when your email
came in. I do apologize if this took away from some of your other work.
