Ok - got it working!
Over the weekend, our sysadmin installed all the correct patches to bring
Solaris up to the spec required for Java 1.3.0. Predictably, this made no
difference. However, today we installed Java 1.3.1, and that made the
difference - straight away Cocoon started working, without even having to
blow away the work directory. This strengthens my belief that it was
something to do with the class loader - presumably there was something dodgy
about the way the low level file searching, path resolution or similar was
working on Solaris which has changed in 1.3.1.
