Websphere 3.x has some really ancient XML libraries in the
static classpath for the webapp. You'll have to put your
favorite XML toolset (Xalan/Xerxes) in the static classpath
explicitely. Look here
  http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=fop-dev&m=101552169109119&w=2
search for "Websphere"

Complain violently to IBM, event though you'll probably get only
some "yeah, yeah, upgrade to 4.x" comment.
