Figured out a "solution". It seems I need to get the web application loaded on startup. To achieve this I just added the old ServletDispatcher with a load-on-startup setting, without any servlet mapping. In web.xml, simply add these lines:

...
   <servlet>
      <servlet-name>dummyaction</servlet-name>
      <servlet-class>com.opensymphony.webwork.dispatcher.ServletDispatcher</servlet-class>
      <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
   </servlet>
...

Hope this can help others with the same problem. I've been using latest WebWork (2.2.2) and WebSphere (6.0.2.11) as of writing.
