This APAR includes fixes for WebSphere Application Server
Version 3.5 APARs that also apply to Version 4.0.  In addition,
fixes for defects found during internal testing are included.

Internal Defect Summary:

 79002 -
   The service level needs to be changed from 10 to 11.
 78193 -
   Although both Parser and Compiler process correctly, the
   exception thrown was not properly caught. Thus, status code
   200 is incorrectly returned.
 78988 -
   The extraneous square box character at the lower left of
   simple.jsp output is caused by storing the JSP in the wrong
   format.
 79080 -
   The trace method Tr.uncondEvent() is used to generate trace
   messages describing the runtime version for the Web
   container.  To have to messages come out all the time
   requires that a different trace method be used.
 79143 -
   There is an error in the jasper.mak file which prevents the
   files in the child directory runtime from being compiled.

The following Version 3.5 APAR fixes are added to Version 4.0
and shipped with this APAR.  Refer to the closing text for the
individual APARs for more information about the reported
problem.  The APAR Abstract information is provided here.

  Change handlePageException method in PageContextImpl class to
  catch the thowable and forward (or include) to its errorPage

   File simple.jsp was changed from a text file to a binary
   file.

Defect 79080 -

   messages show up in the V4.0 job log when tracing is turned
   off.
