Primefaces is undefined

I am getting web-page errors "Primefaces is undefined". Also, I am using jsp. Everything works fine with primefaces 2.0, but when I tried to use the newly released 2.1 everything stopped working. My guess is p:resources does not work any longer or because h:head and h:body is not included in the jsf taglib for jsp.
Is there a way for jsp to see primefaces 2.1? I plan on using xhtml in the future but would like to get this working for now.

Hi, can you post your page please?

To keep it simple. I cannot even get tabview to work in this simple page.

You just need h:head instead of head.

I do not have h:head or h:body to pick from. Am I using the wrong version of jsf. I am using mojarra 2.0.3.

What does happen when you place h:head, what is the error?

I am using Tomcat 6.0 and here is the error.

org.apache.jasper.JasperException: /test.jsp(17,8) No tag "head" defined in tag library imported with prefix "h"

I thought h:head was available in jsp as well, then I think you can't upgrade unless you create your own custom component that does;

So what you are saying is the only way to user jsp which primefaces 2.1 is to modify the HeadRender.java which you provided.

No, I meant creating your own component like c:resources that does what HeadRenderer does as clearly this is a JSP limitation with JSF 2.0. Maybe it is a better idea to take some time and migrate to JSF2 as with JSP-JSF you also can't use other JSF2 features.
