I have been using just what you have described via the following:
<html:messages id="msg" message="false">
<bean:write name="msg" />
</html:messages>
However, the JSP fails with "Cannot find bean msg in any scope" when it tries
to process the error message(s).

<html:messages is the tag.
with option message=false because " By default the tag will retrieve the bean
it will iterate over from the Globals.ERROR_KEY constant string, but if this
attribute is set to 'true' the bean will be retrieved from the
Globals.MESSAGE_KEY constant string. Also if this is set to 'true', any value
assigned to the name attribute will be ignored. [RT Expr]"
