I have a servlet that I'd like to access with a url that includes a
subdirectory; e.g., www.whatever.com/mysubdir/MyServlet (because that
subdirectory is a protected area with associated jsp's).

But, I can't seem to get a configuration that will map a request to
the servlet. I tried the following in web.xml to no avail:

<servlet>
   <servlet-name>XServlet</servlet-name>
   <servlet-class>XServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
   <servlet-name>XServlet</servlet-name>
   <url-pattern>/mysubdir/com.whatever.XServlet</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

How do I accomplish this?

<servlet>
   <servlet-name>XServlet</servlet-name>
   <servlet-class>com.whatever.XServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
   <servlet-name>XServlet</servlet-name>
   <url-pattern>/mysubdir/XServlet</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

would be my guess.

What error do you get ?
