Hi,
Although I am starting to use the new tag files (and I already ran
into a problem which I will send in another email), Tomcat 5 still supports
the plain old JAR file tags which I am still using.
Also, regarding the deployer, I would like to point out that there
is no reason the compile should fail, because the web-app works fine.

JSP 2.0 has no .tld files any more. Neither do you need to edit your web.xml
file. You need to copy your tags to WEB-INF/tags directory.
x1.tag file, must reside in WEB-INF/tags
The jsp pages will have the following change:
<%@ taglib prefix="someTag" tagdir="/WEB-INF/tags" %>
<someTag:x1>
</someTag:x1>
Hope this helps
Mufaddal.
