What I've understood so far is that there is 'big' classloader issues 
when dealing with Javac. Indeed, Javac doesn't take into account the 
WebApplciation Classloader define by the Servlet Container for the Web 
application -such application would be Cocoon-, meaning that you need to 
get the STRING classpath which is the reason on the hack you saw and 
changed above.

That's the reason why Stefano is going back to a middle term solution 
that takes advantage of Catalina -if presents-, and if not it will work 
with the System classapth (the way it works for you).
