NoClassDefFoundError for com/sun/istack/logging/Logger in Glassfish v3

I have an application client which calls a SOAP service. I've used wsimport from the glassfish distribution to generate the ws classes, and everything works fine in Glassfish v2. When I run it (webstart) from v3, the app runs fine, but when I initiate a SOAP call, I get

I can't even find the named class anywhere, and there seems to be almost no reference to it on the net.

EDIT It's in jaxb-osgi.jar

Isn't this supposed to be provided by glassfish? Surely if I include it with my app it poses introduces a risk of conflict?

The description of your problem and the steps to reproduce are not clear at all but GlassFish v3 bundles Metro 2.0 and Metro 2.0 contains JAX-WS 2.2, which clashes with the JAX-WS 2.1 that comes with Java SE 6:

For a detailed analysis when exactly this is happening, see this Wiki page. The reason for these failures is that Metro 2.0 contains JAX-WS 2.2, which clashes with JAX-WS 2.1 1 that is built into Java SE 6. You will only see these failures if you did not install Metro 2.0 with our installation scripts metro-on-glassfish.xml/metro-on-tomcat.xml. That is the case if you e.g. installed Metro 2.0 for GlassFish V3 via the update center or if you use a version of GlassFish V3 built into NetBeans.

The simplest solution is to download the Metro 2.0 nightly build and run the installation script. The script copies the file webservices-api.jar, which contains the JAX-WS 2.2 API, into <java-home>/lib/endorsed. Alternatively, you can of course manually copy webservices-api.jar into a suitable endorsed directory.

And because com/sun/istack/logging/Logger is a dependency of JAX-WS 2.2, you are very likely in the situation described in the mentioned Wiki page:

Metro 2.0 bundles JAX-WS 2.2. Java SE 6 contains JAX-WS 2.1 (SE 6 upgrade 3 and older version contain JAX-WS 2.0). That means Java will by default pick up the JAX-WS 2.1 APIs and implementation and code that exploits JAX-WS 2.2 features will not work.
