When your task performs XSLT, does it programmatically use Ant's XSLT task to perform the transformation or is it completely separate from any Ant specifics? If the former, then you are out of luck because your task would have to be at the same level as, or a parent of, Ant's main classloader. If the latter, I'm not sure why this wouldn't work?
