       Body:
"Off course that's getting away from standards for no legitimate reason."

The reason, so far, has been licensing and details about jstl.jar.

If it's part of the standard taglibs from Apache, then fine. However, jars from Sun 
licensed under their Binary Code License have not been previously allowed to be 
distributed on ibiblio.

I'm happy if we can depend on jstl.jar as the sources are part of the standard taglib. 
See 
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/jakarta-taglibs/standard/src/javax/servlet/jsp/jstl/core/LoopTagStatus.java?rev=1.4.2.1&only_with_tag=STANDARD_1_0_BRANCH&view=markup

So. If I replace the custom LoopStatus in ForEachTag with the JSTL one, and keep the 
rest, what is the difference between our patches?

Description:
According to the jstl specification 1.1, the varStatus attribute of the forEach tag 
should create a variable with type javax.servlet.jsp.jstl.core.LoopTagStatus.  
Currently a variable is set with type Integer which contains the index of the current 
iteration.  I created a test case (I don't think any existed for forEach) that 
demonstrates this.  I also began making the fix, but it doesn't fully work.  I am 
submitting my patch along with the test cases.  The comments I placed in the code 
should be enough to tip someone off as to why it's not working (I hope).  I am 
relatively new to jelly (been using the standard taglibs for awhile) and have never 
opened the source before.  I am willing to complete the patch, but will probably need 
some guidance because I messed with it for awhile before determing I couldn't complete 
without some help.  Thanks! :-)
