org.gjt.jsp.JSPCompiler is broken because it uses
sun.tools.javac.Main. Take a look at
http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/faq/faq-sun-packages.html ("Why
Developers Should Not Write Programs That Call 'sun' Packages")
If you want to use sun.tools.javac.Main with 1.2.x you have to put
tools.jar on your classpath. The better solution is not to use
sun.tools.javac.Main at all.
