The prefix is not needed for staticaly exported files,
because they are now directly in the Apache document root.

For dynamic files, like JSPs, it behaves exactly as TomCat alone,
thus using /opencms/opencms/. You can probably remove it
completely by deploying opencms.war to root context in TomCat,
mapping opencms servlet to every URL in web.xml, and setting mod_jk
to forward requests based on *.jsp suffix, but I don't see
this as a necessity, dynamicaly generated pages usually have
long URLs anyway.
