Does anybody know how to use "ipfw" (ip firewall) to forward port 80 to a
non-privileged port?

Have you read 'man ipfw'?

Scanning it just now, two prospects are the 'divert' rule and the 'fwd' rule.

However, I could be wrong because I spent less than a minute scanning the
man page.

Just wanted to point out that the use of Tomcat's connectors (mod_jk or similar) would probably be recommended, since the web server (Apache, IIS, etc.) is better at handling non-JSP/Servlet processing, so while moving Tomcat to port 80 would remove the garish :8080 type of URL modifier, it might not be the best choice, particularly on a production system.
