I attached sample web application to the issue,
https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=57136#c31

Testing with Glassfish 4.1.1, it also expects double escaping.

I am not a user of Glassfish, so I do not know yet what configuration
options are there if this feature is configurable.

===
My steps:
1. Follow https://glassfish.java.net/download.html  and download
glassfish-4.1.1-web.zip
2. After unzipping GF, copy test.war into
glassfish4/glassfish/domains/domain1/autodeploy/

3. Start it
cd glassfish4/bin
asadmin start-domain

4. Open the page in browser
http://localhost:8080/test/

Page with double escaped variant works.
Page with no double escaping fails:

org.apache.jasper.JasperException: /test1.jsp(27,66) PWC6031:
Unterminated &lt;c:if tag

(GRRR: It is not Apache Jasper. They were lazy to rename the package
and are abusing the trademarks...)

5. Stop it
cd glassfish4/bin
asadmin stop-domain

===

As such, I think the default value of "quoteAttributeEL" option in
Jasper shall be changed to "true". The same in JspC, where it would
need a "-no-quoteAttributeEL" command line option.

BTW, jasper-howto.xml already documents that the default is true,
which does not match the code.
