Gotta say:

        I'm not certain what's going on.

Jaxen works with JDOM even with namespaces.  We try to stay roughly current
with the JDOM CVS snapshots, but I haven't updated our jdom.jar in a month
or more.  

If you can convince JBoss to save your stack-trace, that'd go a long way
to helping out.  Else, all I know is "it kinda broke".
