How to use c:url with c:import?

[K.C. Baltz]

For various reasons, I am generating a URL for a context relative 
resource using <c:url> and storing the result in a variable.  Then I'm 
using that value in a <c:import> in an attempt to include the content of 
the resource in the page.  Example:

<!-- Stores "/myContext/text.html" in the variable textURL -->
<c:url value="/text.html" var="textURL" />
<!-- attempts to insert the contents of text.html in the page, but 
nothing happens -->
<c:import url="${textURL}" />

I'm pretty sure the problem is that <c:url> generates a url with a 
leading slash followed by the context name, when <c:import> expects URLs 
that start with a slash to be relative to the current context.  The spec 
seems to indicate <c:import> can handle URLs generated with <c:url>, but 
I don't see how.

Help?
