An older version is included with the jdk - which doesn't work for 
cocoon.  This is why you need to copy them to endorsed, which is 
new with 1.4 for the very purpose of overriding the provided version 
with newer ones as needed.

the standard jdk endorsed dir is overridden by default by tomcat's 
startup parameters replaced with tomcat/common/endorsed, which is 
not yet mentioned in the cocoon docs.

Don't worry, by my count you're the 5,000th person that's been hung up 
on this.
