After looking at the generated Java file, I find that the request object is available because it's a parameter to _jspService(). I was attempting to instantiate my objects via calls to request.getAttribute() at the point of declaration, not in the first real code block in the page. Once I moved the instancing to the first code block, everything was fine. (Some aspects of JSP development are counter-intuitive to me, I'm afraid.)
