If you're looking for the library which contains the offending class here's a trick I use. Go into the directories that your classloader will use to find jar files (common/lib, server/lib, etc). If you're using using some version of unix run the bourne shell (/bin/sh) or bash and execute the following:
for name in *.jar do echo LIBRARY: $name >> classlist jar tvf $name >> classlist done
Now you can look in the classlist file and search for the class name that is causing the casting exception. Scroll up until you find the name of the class which contains it.

As it's Friday, anyone for a game of *nix golf?
find . -name \*.jar -print -exec jar tvf {} \;
That would work too, although to be useful you'd want to pipe the output to a file for subsequent class name lookups.
Okay, give me par 52:
find . -name \*.jar -print -exec jar tvf {} \;|vi -:-)
