Tomcat doesn't find JSTL .jar files in shared/lib/

           Summary: Tomcat doesn't find JSTL .jar files in shared/lib/
           Product: Tomcat 4
           Version: 4.1.24
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: MacOS X
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Unknown
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: rnewman@thecia.net
                CC: rnewman@thecia.net


If my web application uses JSTL 1.0, and I put all of the JSTL .jar files into Tomcat's shared/lib 
directory, the application fails with errors such as

org.apache.jasper.JasperException: /budget.jsp(21,0) No such tag set in the tag library imported 
with prefix c

or

org.apache.jasper.JasperException: This absolute uri (http://java.sun.com/jstl/core) cannot be 
resolved in either web.xml or the jar files deployed with this application

But if I move jstl.jar and standard.jar into my application's WEB-INF/lib directory, the application 
runs fine.   I seem to be able to leave the rest of the .jar files in shared/lib with no problem.

Example provided upon request.  In neither case (the failing application nor the successful one) 
have I modified WEB-INF/web.xml or placed any .tld files into WEB-INF/ .
