By the way, to show the data as 41001, it doesn't matter how I configure GeoServer. The only thing that matters is how I specify the bounding box in the mapbuilder xml file:
<BoundingBox SRS="EPSG:4326" minx="..." miny="..." maxx="..." maxy="..."/> (coordinates in degrees will show the map in geographic projection) <BoundingBox SRS="EPSG:41001" minx=..." miny="..." maxx="..." maxy="..."/> (xy in meters will show the map in mercator projection) I guess mapbuilder tells geoserver how to serve (project) the data.

Also if you get the data in 4326, how do you reproject it to show as 41001? If you want to reproject your WFSrequest, you will probably need to rewrite a bit of the code to use proj4js to reproject to deegrees. It should be able to do so, but it's not a standard function of mapbuilder. I recommend to use 41001 all the way, from Geoserver all the way to Mapbuilder and back. But if that's not an option, I might be able to assist you to adept the WFS request to reproject on the fly.
