I believe you are correct.  J2EE 1.4
http://java.sun.com/j2ee/1.4/docs/api/javax/servlet/jsp/el/ExpressionEvaluat
or.html has an ExpressionEvaluator class.

In the meantime, it may be a good idea for Jakarta Taglibs to run a
Class.forName() on both of the evaluators, and use the 1.4 alternative when
available.  But, I haven't thought this through in detail as I am not using
Servlet 2.4 or JSP 2.0 yet - I'm waiting for Tomcat 5.0 to reach beta to
dive into that development.
