There was a patch in the current CVS that isn't in Cocoon 1.8
that allows this to happen.  Basically, the problem stems from
the fact that IBM screwed up there classloader royally (There
are other issues), and it forgot to load the URL handler for
the classloader: protocol.

The other hack that needs to be done is separate out ALL the
XSL files (if you plan on using XSP), and access them via the
file system.  Again IBM royally screwed up the classloader,
and you can't get resources out of jars--only classes.
