I recently got frustrated with the fact that the ability to find classes
by annotation is dependent on the security settings of the class loader.
The most recent XML Calabash uses property files (if the annotations
fail) to find them. That should fix the problems as long as the
mathml-to-svg extension jar file is on the class path.
