Which version of the dvdstore are you using? We've removed all JSTL uses from it. You do not need the jsp-config stuff in web.xml. It will be ignored for facelets (which is what the dvd store app uses). In a JSP application, it should be sufficient to put the taglib in WEB-INF/lib without the declaration. I definitely do NOT recommend putting the JSTL jars in the main lib directory. That would definitely cause problems with JSP applications trying to use JSTL.
