I no longer have the old configuration to confirm that again, but I am
pretty sure that's the problem. I checked the packages and classes in
the appserv-ws.jar file and it does contain jaxb packages. In any case,
I am uncertain of a way to guarantee that packages in jar files I drop
into lib will be picked up instead of those in appserv-ws.jar

OK. So just to understand the situation better, the issue is that
because appserv-ws.jar contains a copy of the JAXB RI, even if you drop
JAXB RI jars into the appserver's lib directory, it will be still hidden
by appserv-ws.jar, right?
PE9 folks should be in the same floor, so I'll find them and ask them.
