Spring 2 + jdk 1.3 + Websphere 4 + J2EE 1.2

[sekobo]

I'm working on a WebApp and I have some constraints: Spring 2 + jdk 1.3 + Websphere 4 + J2EE 1.2.
I have the following problem with the Xerces parser,
When I use the Websphere xerces.jar applicationContext bean initialization fails with the following errors

When I change this xerces version to use xerces-2.6.2.jar
applicationContext initialization is fine but when I try to refer to a tag libray in my JSP pages, I have the following error:
