WebSphere was not creating the proper writer to handle
double byte characters (ie. kanji) inside of it's custom tag
<tsx:repeat>.
Problem conclusion
Changed the default writer used for the <tsx:repeat>
tags so that the default encoding for the jsp page
will be used to create the writer inside of the
custom tag.
