Peter Ahe, the lead for Jsr199, and my contact at Sun for Javac, had
left Sun, and I don't know who works on Javac now. I don't think there
has been any progress on this, given that the last evaluation was 2
years ago.
Having the same classloader for compiling and running a JSP page would
simplify how javac can be used in JSP compilations, though it wouldn't
directly solve the problem at hand.
Thanks.
