Hi,
it is in the Java Server Pages 2.0 Specification:
(http://jcp.org/aboutJava/communityprocess/final/jsr152/)
"As of JSP 2.0, it is illegal to refer to any classes from the unnamed (a.k.a.
default) package. This may result in a translation error on some containers,
specifically those that run in a JDK 1.4 or greater environment. It is
unfortunate,
but unavoidable, that this will break compatibility with some older JSP
applications."
Tomcat 5 implements JSP 2.0, Tomcat 4 did implement JSP 1.x, so it
is correct that this feature vanished from Tomcat 4 to 5.

You have to package the classes and then refer to them by their fully
qualified name -- ie javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest. This change
was made a long time ago (tomcat 4.x?).
The classes themselves have to be in either a jar file in WEB-INF/lib or
in a folder structure mirroring the package in WEB-INF/classes.
HttpServletRequest.class of the package javax.servlet.http for example
would be in WEB-INF/classes/javax/servlet/http
I know in some corner conditions packageless classes have been allowed
(ie servlet class names), but it's really a much better practice to get
them into declared packages.
