This problem occurs because the jar file is being copied into the 
work directory. However, this should not be done (there is in fact
a comment in the code saying "Take this stuff out when taglib changes are 
thoroughly tested".)

I have commented out that code section and the test 
I ran worked fine.

I'll commit the patch right now and I'd appreciate if you
could run some exhaustive tests.
